Liverpool starlet faces two-match ban on loan but manager agrees with FA decision

Liverpool youngster Leighton Clarkson will serve a two-match after admitting a charge of serious foul play while on loan at Scottish Premiership side Aberdeen.

The 20-year-old midfielder departed on a season-long loan earlier in the summer and has already become a regular under manager Jim Goodwin. He's made five league appearances so far this season and scored two goals, against St. Mirren and St. Johnstone.

However, in their outing against Ross County last weekend the midfielder was booked in the 57th minute for a challenge on Callum Johnson. Despite only receiving a booking at the time, it emerged earlier this week he would face a disciplinary hearing and he was set to go to a player tribunal on Thursday.
