Ben White joins up with Arsenal in Dubai on day of England’s World Cup exit following reports of ‘bust up’

Published on December 11, 2022 at 01:52 PM

BEN WHITE has returned to Arsenal training after withdrawing from the England camp earlier this month.

The Gunners defender has joined his teammates in Dubai, having left the Three Lions squad on November 30 for personal reasons.

Ben White left the England camp for ‘personal reasons’

England boss Gareth Southgate played down reports that the former Brighton man had left following a bust-up with assistant Steve Holland.

White arrived in the Middle East on Saturday before taking part in his first session with the squad on Sunday ahead of their friendly against AC Milan on Tuesday at the Al-Maktoum Stadium.

Ghana international Thomas Partey has also returned to train with the club after failing to make it out of the group in Qatar, while USA goalkeeper Matt Turner is back after being knocked out in the last-16 by the Netherlands.

All three could be involved against AC Milan on Tuesday night.

Granit Xhaka, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Gabriel Martinelli are all expected to return to training this week ahead of the Premier League’s return after Christmas.

It is not clear when England duo Bukayo Saka and Aaron Ramsdale will rejoin their club teammates, though they are expected to be given some holiday time before returning.

Oleksandr Zinchenko was not part of the main group training in Dubai as he continues to recover from a small calf problem.

The injury is not connected to the calf problem the former Manchester City man suffered in September which saw him out for a month.
