    Leeds United midfielder Brenden Aaronson has been banned from driving after speeding in Harrogate.

    Aaronson, 23, of Victoria Avenue, was caught speeding at 37 miles per hour in a Mercedes-AMG on the A6040 Knaresborough Road near the Stray on March 12, 2023. The speed limit for the road is 30 mph.

    He admitted the offence in September last year.

    A hearing was held at Harrogate Magistrates Court this morning, but Aaronson was not present.

    Magistrates ordered the United States international to pay a £666 fine, £266 surcharge and £90 in court costs.

    Aaronson already had 10 points on his licence, which was endorsed with a further three points and he was disqualified from driving for six months.

    The 23-year-old is currently on loan at German side Union Berlin from Leeds United.

    He joined the club on July 9, 2023, after the Whites’ relegation from the Premier League.

    Aaronson made 36 appearances for Leeds last season and scored one goal.

    He joined United from Red bull Salzburg in May 2022 for a reported £25 million fee.
