Ben White
28-Year-Old
Arsenal
Premier
OUT
Injury Hamstring
Est. Return 1/17/2026
Sidelined a month
White is set to miss a month due to a hamstring injury following a scan, according to Charlie Wyett of The Sun.
ANALYSIS
White went down Saturday and is now feared to be set for a lengthy absence, with the defender set to be ruled out for four to five weeks. This comes following a scan Monday, leaving the club without yet another option in the defense, a persistent issue this campaign. Jurrien Timber is their regular right-back and will likely continue in that role, although the club is left without a backup option as White hits the sidelines.

Managing minutes after injury
White has been managing his minutes after returning from injury, and that has led him to little time to begin the season, according to manager Mikel Arteta. "It was an injury that kept him out for a few weeks, and we have to manage his load, and he didn't have the rhythm to do that. So the reason why he's not been playing is to manage that. He's in a good place now, he's been training more recently, and his feeling has been very good, and he will have minutes to play."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Extension looking closer
White and Arsenal are getting closer to agreeing to a new deal, according to ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Arsenal are close to agreeing fresh terms with the 26-year-old defender. His current deal runs until 2026 so there's no rush, but the Gunners want to reward the former Brighton star for his impressive form. White emerged as a center-back, but he has done a good job adjusting to the right-back position.
