Crewe striker Chris Long has signed a new one-year contract at the League Two club.
The 29-year-old ex-Burnley and Blackpool forward joined the Alex from Scottish club Motherwell in July 2021.
He scored nine goals last season as Crewe finished sixth in the table and reached the play-off final at Wembley, where they were beaten 2-0 by Crawley.
The former England Under-20 international has scored 22 goals in 69 league appearances for the Railwaymen to date.
