Arsenal have been handed a huge boost ahead of their game against Leicester with Ben White to be included in the squad.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that defender Ben White is available for selection against Leicester City this weekend. White, who has been sidelined since November due to knee surgery, participated in training during Arsenal’s recent warm-weather camp in Dubai, raising hopes for his return.
Arteta stated, “Yes, Ben has been training more regularly now. We still have to manage his load a lot, but he’s going to be available.” White’s return comes at a crucial time for Arsenal, who have been dealing with multiple injuries in their squad.
The defender’s presence will provide a much-needed boost to Arsenal’s defense, especially with the team facing important fixtures in February. Arteta also provided an update on Bukayo Saka’s recovery, confirming that the winger’s rehabilitation is progressing well.
