Liverpool Goalkeeper Recalled from Loan for Paying £50 Fine in Pennies

Liverpool's Chilean goalkeeper Lawrence Vigouroux went on loan to Swindon since August, where he made eight appearances.

However, the 21-year-old's stay at the County Ground has been cut short after he displayed some world-class financial banter: The shot stopper paid a £50 disciplinary fine in pennies.

The Daily Mail's Simon Jones reports:

"

The 21-year-old signed for Liverpool from Tottenham last year and had been doing well for Swindon after being sent out by Brendan Rodgers to gain experience on a season loan.

However, after turning up late for training last week, Vigouroux was told he would be fined £50.

He was spoken to by manager Mark Cooper and senior players about his attitude but Sportsmail understands he then turned up with his fine in bank bags full of pennies.

"

Vigouroux has certainly coined an original manner of ending a loan spell, which seemed to provoke widespread mirth when fans gave a penny for their thoughts on Twitter:

"

I think the penny has finally dropped that Lawrence Vigouroux didn't want to play for Swindon Town. #STFC #LFC
