Arsenal defender Ben White has withdrawn from England’s squad for their
forthcoming Nations League games after failing to recover from injury in time.
White, who has four
England caps, has been dealing with a hamstring problem and missed Arsenal’s
last Premier League game of the season against Everton.
The centre-back was
still selected by England boss Gareth Southgate ahead of next month’s Nations
League games.
But he will now stay at
Arsenal for treatment as he looks to return in time for next season.
Raheem Sterling, Kieran
Trippier and James Ward-Prowse will arrive at England’s St George’s Park base
on Tuesday, along with Trent Alexander-Arnold following Liverpool’s Champions
League final defeat against Real Madrid.
England face a double header against Hungary and
games against Germany and Italy as they start their Nations League campaign
ahead of the World Cup in Qatar later this year.
