Hamilton Accies say they are ‘immensely saddened’ by the news that midfielder Ben Williamson, 23, was involved in the road traffic incident.
The club passed on their best wishes to Ben’s family in this ‘difficult time’. It is not known when the incident took place or the extent of the injuries sustain by Williamson.
A spokesperson for the Championship side said: “Everyone at Hamilton Academical Football Club are immensely saddened by the news of the injuries sustained by Ben Williamson in a road traffic accident.
