Arsenal is actively engaged in discussions with the talented 26-year-old defender, Ben White, exploring the possibility of a contract extension. Encouragingly, both the player and the club are expressing confidence in the ongoing negotiations.
White, who made the switch from Brighton to Arsenal in 2021, has solidified his position as a dependable asset in Coach Arteta’s team. Initially recruited as a central defender, the versatile English player has seamlessly adapted to the right-back role, accumulating over 100 appearances for the club.
Despite having a contractual commitment with Arsenal until 2026, talks are in progress to secure a fresh agreement. Notably, renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has reported that discussions are proceeding positively, fostering optimism on both sides about finalizing a new deal.
While White was sidelined in Arsenal’s recent fixture due to injury, the defender is poised to make a triumphant return to the lineup for the upcoming clash against Brentford following the international break.
