Chorley FC have reassured fans they are 'financially stable' amid rumours Boyzone could become the face of the club.

On X, formerly Twitter, the club say:

We wish to address recent speculation in the media regarding a HMRC winding up petition.

We can confirm categorically that no petition has been served and the club remains financially stable.

Any reports suggesting otherwise are inaccurate and simply a result of oversight and clerical error.

We appreciate the concern of our supporters and assure them that the club's operations continue without disruption.

Thank you for your continued support.

It comes following speculation Boyzone are in talks with the club to buy a majority share.

The band are said to be in attendance at the FA Trophy fifth round game against Solihull Moors this afternoon.
