On 30 December 2019, Savin joined Stalybridge Celtic on loan in order to gain first-team experience. He made one appearance, keeping a clean sheet in a 0–0 draw against Ashton United before being recalled by Accrington Stanley on 10 January 2020 after changes in the goalkeeping situation at both clubs[6] · [7] · [8].
