Former Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday man 'could' face axe from club as investigation launched

Former Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday defender Jaden Brown could reportedly be axed by St Mirren.

Brown joined the Scottish outfit in the summer, having ended the previous season on loan at the club.

However, his season has been disrupted by off-field troubles. Last week, the 25-year-old pleaded guilty to three driving offences and is awaiting sentencing.
