Arsenal defender Ben White has returned to training with the first team for the first time in three months after recovering from an injury during a training camp in Dubai.
White has made 12 appearances in all competitions this season but has not featured since injuring his knee in the 1-1 Premier League draw at Chelsea on November 10. The
Gunners are off this weekend and Mikel Arteta took his players to Dubai on Thursday.
White was called up and the 27-year-old England international has been training with the team for the first two days of training.
Given the amount of action he has missed, it is very possible Arteta is managing his load with the defender perhaps joining Saka indoors. It is however, plausible that a minor setback has been suffered with several players experiencing that upon returning from long-term injuries.
“Ben is still injured, hopefully after the break he will be ready to play,” Arteta told แทงบอล UFABET ราคาดีที่สุด ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ reporters earlier this week.
Winger Bukayo Saka also travelled with the team but did not train as he continues to recover from a hamstring problem and is not expected to return until March.
After the training camp in Dubai, Arteta’s side return to action next Saturday at Leicester City to put pressure on leaders Liverpool.
