Leighton Clarkson has opened up on his time at Aberdeen so far this season - adding that he is in constant contact with Liverpool chiefs over his development.
Clarkson, 21, joined Liverpool as a kid, impressing Reds youth bosses and making his League Cup, FA Cup and Champions League debuts within one year of each other. However, with Liverpool competing on all fronts, it was obvious that Clarkson was not going to get any game time ahead of stars such as Jordan Henderson, Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara - with the playmaker ending up on loan at Aberdeen.
He has impressed in his time at Pittodrie, coming up with goals from distance similar to James Maddison when he first came up as a youngster before going on to impress at Leicester City and for England. But any hopes of Aberdeen fans potentially taking Clarkson in on a permanent deal could well be shot with the Liverpool starlet claiming that his parent club are 'really happy with how he is progressing'.
