Arsenal defender Ben White has put pen to paper on a new four-year contract with the club, solidifying his commitment to the Gunners’ cause. The 26-year-old, who arrived at Arsenal in 2021 for a notable £50 million transfer fee, has become a linchpin in Mikel Arteta’s squad, showcasing his versatility by excelling in both right-back and centre-back positions.
White’s importance to the team was highlighted as he featured prominently in Arsenal’s recent triumph, helping them secure a spot in the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time in 14 years with a victory over Porto in the midweek clash.
Since his transfer from Brighton, White has been a mainstay in the Arsenal lineup, accumulating 97 Premier League appearances and netting four goals along the way. In the current season, he has been a vital contributor, featuring in 27 league matches and playing a crucial role in Arsenal’s ascent to the top of the table, currently leading Liverpool on goal difference.
With this contract extension, Arsenal fans can look forward to enjoying White’s talents and dedication for the foreseeable future, as he continues to be a key figure in the club’s pursuit of success both domestically and in Europe.
