The 36-year-old has made 46 appearances for Fylde following 240 in the EFL, most recently with Salford City and Fleetwood Town.

Left-back Conlan, 27, followed former Fylde manager Jim Bentley to Mill Farm from Morecambe, where he made close to 150 appearances.

Both players are determined to help Fylde seal a return to non-league's top flight next season, having fallen short in the promotion play-offs last weekend.

Fellow defender Jack Byrne, a product of the club's academy, has also agreed a new one-year deal. The centre-back has been a professional at Fylde since 2020.
