Newcastle United player Cheick Tiote has had his car seized by police after being arrested on suspicion of fraud.
The 26-year-old midfielder was stopped by police on Tuesday near the club’s training ground on suspicion of fraud in relation to driving offences.
His car, a Chevrolet Camaro estimated to be worth about £75,000, was seized by Northumbria Police, who said inquiries were ongoing.
The Ivory Coast international signed for the club in 2010.
