Motherwell striker Clarkson moves to Bristol City

Scotland striker David Clarkson has moved to Championship outfit Bristol City on a three-year deal. The 23-year-old has moved from Motherwell for an undisclosed fee.

"I'm feeling good, I'm looking forward to it, it's a big club," Clarkson told City's official website. "I've spoke to a few people about it and they're passionate about their football. As a player you want to be at a club that's passionate about their football."

He added: "Moving here will help my chances of getting into the squad more often. I'm still young, I've got a lot to learn and Bristol City will be a great club to do that."

Robins boss Gary Johnson was also thrilled to conclude the deal and said: "We've been keeping an eye on him and he's got himself into the Scottish international set-up, he's only 23 and one for the future as well and probably has still got more potential. I'm very pleased with the signing. I think in a couple of years time he'll be worth a lot of money. He's got a lot of ability."
