Keeper lasts six days with Livi

Italian goalkeeper Giordano Vanin has left Livingston - less than a week after signing a three-year contract with the First Division club.

Livi say they have reluctantly agreed to the 22-year-old's request, which had been made for "personal reasons".

Chairman Angelo Massone told his club website: "It's a disappointment for us, especially with an important game with Stranraer just a week away.

"We are looking at a number of alternative options."

Livingston manager Roberto Landi fielded two goalkeepers in Saturday's 2-0 friendly defeat by Celtic's reserves.
