Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Arsenal defender Ben White is going to be out for “months” after undergoing a procedure on his knee during the international break. White played the full game in the 1-1 draw with Chelsea before the break but he has been dealing with multiple issues since the start of the season.

Arsenal right back Ben White will be sidelined for “a few months” after having surgery to fix a nagging knee injury.

Arsenal has been dealt a significant blow to their squad with the news that Ben White will be sidelined for several months due to injury. This comes as an unfortunate setback for the Gunners, who are already without Takehiro Tomiyasu.
