Plymouth have confirmed teenager Shane White has been arrested for drink driving.

The incident comes three months after former Argyle goalkeeper Luke McCormick was jailed for seven years after pleading guilty to causing death by dangerous driving and drink driving.

A club statement read: "Plymouth Argyle Football Club is aware of the arrest of first-year professional Shane White in the early hours of Tuesday, January 20 and the subsequent charge of driving with excess alcohol.

"As legal proceedings are now active, the club feels it is inappropriate to make any further comment at this time. The club will issue a further statement at the appropriate time."
