Leeds United Footballer Scores Speeding Ban

A Leeds United footballer has been disqualified from driving after racking up another speeding conviction.

Brenden Aaronson, 23, of Victoria Avenue, Harrogate, was convicted of speeding at Harrogate Magistrates' Court in September 2023.

The United States international player was sentenced by the same court on Wednesday, 3rd January 2024.

Magistrates heard that Aaronson, who already had ten penalty points on his licence, was clocked speeding on the A6040 Knaresborough Road on Sunday, 12th March 2023.

His Mercedes-AMG was recorded travelling at 37 mph on a stretch of road with a 30 mph speed limit.

The midfielder, who is currently on loan of Bundesliga team Union Berlin, was fined £666 and ordered to pay £90 towards prosecution costs and £266 surcharge.

His licence was endorsed with a further three penalty points, which means he is now disqualified for a minimum of 6 months under the totting up rule.
