Ben White
28-Year-Old
Arsenal
Premier
OUT
Injury Knee
Est. Return 8/14/2026
Done for season
White suffered MCL damage in his knee and will miss the rest of the season, while also being unlikely for the World Cup, according to coach Mikel Arteta. "We have to wait and see. It looks like a long-term injury. At the moment, the focus is can we have him back and be available for Arsenal. That's not going to happen in many, many weeks."
ANALYSIS
White is going to miss the rest of the season, as many thought after he went down with a knee injury against West Ham, suffering from MCL damage. Unfortunately for the England international, this will also likely end his World Cup hopes, as a timeline for his recovery will likely take at least a month or two depedning on the damage and which recovery steps are taken. Jurrien Timber (ankle) is still working on a return of his own, so Cristhian Mosquera is a possible option to take duties at right-back. White ends his season with one assist and three clean sheets in 12 appearances (nine starts).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Ready to reject Everton
White isn't expected to join Everton in the summer and would prefer to stay at Arsenal instead, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
White, who will miss the rest of the 2025/26 season with a knee injury, wants assurances over his playing time at Arsenal before making a decision. Everton are keen on signing the 28-year-old right-back, but if he's given a steady role with the Gunners in 2026/27, he'd probably stay with the London club rather than moving to the blue side of Merseyside.
