Calvert-Lewin, who did not attend court for the hearing, had been due to stand trial after he initially pleaded not guilty to exceeding the speed limit and failing to give information relating to the identification of the driver.

His solicitor said the footballer would be changing his plea to exceeding the speed limit to guilty and the prosecution offered no evidence on the second charge.

Calvert-Lewin now has six points following a previous incident of speeding on February 28, 2020.
