St Mirren have suspended defender Shaun Rooney on a precautionary basis over an alleged incident in Glasgow city centre.
A club statement on Thursday confirmed the 28-year-old had been suspended after disclosing his involvement in an alleged incident last week.
The nature of the matter is not clear but a full investigation has been launched by the Paisley club.
A club statement read: "St Mirren Football Club has suspended Shaun Rooney today, on a precautionary basis, after he disclosed to the club his involvement in an alleged incident in Glasgow City Centre last week.
"The club will now undertake a full investigation into this incident and will make no further comment during this process."
It's not known whether Rooney will be involved for St Mirren for the trip to face Motherwell this weekend.
