Lewis Anthony Clarkson is an English professional footballer who plays for Tadcaster Albion, as a striker.

Career

Clarkson was one of 12 players to be released by Hull City in the summer of 2013.[2] In August, he signed with Northern Premier League Division One South club Scarborough Athletic.[3] During that season he scored 9 goals in 13 appearances for the club, in all competitions.[4]

On 21 November 2013 he signed an 18-month contract with Bradford City.[5][6][7][8] He made his professional debut in January 2014, playing the last three minutes of a 0–3 away loss against Notts County.[9]

Clarkson scored two goals against Guiseley in a pre-season friendly on 12 July 2014,[10] and a further two goals against UCD in another friendly three days later.[11][12] Manager Phil Parkinson later played down the hype surrounding Clarkson's form in the pre-season friendlies.[13] After injuring himself in another pre-season friendly, Clarkson was unable to train for two months, with club physio Matt Barrass warning that Clarkson would be subject to a lengthy rehabilitation process.[14]

He moved on loan to Whitby Town in November 2014,[15] and to Ossett Town in January 2015.[16] He was released by Bradford City later that month.[17]

He joined Tadcaster Albion in February 2015.[18]
