White ruled out of Argentina tour

Jason White
White has had knee problems before

Scotland captain Jason White will miss the national team's summer tour of Argentina as he requires knee surgery.

Scrum-half Mike Blair is likely to continue with the captain's armband in White's absence, after deputising in this year's Six Nations tournament.

A serious knee injury prevented Sale flanker White from taking part in the 2007 Six Nations.

The Scots play will play two Tests against the Pumas, on 7 June in Rosario and a week later in Buenos Aires.

White has been able to play for his club Sale in recent weeks, although he was injured for Friday's European Challenge Cup semi-final win over Bath.

The 29-year-old's Six Nations campaign was also hampered after he sustained concussion.
