Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has offered defender Ben White's services to Barcelona ahead of the summer transfer window. The London club's management no longer needs the English footballer and is determined to remove him from the payroll.
Idman.Biz reports that White, who transferred from Brighton in 2022 and was one of the team's main figures for several seasons, has now become a secondary player in the Gunners squad. The 26-year-old defender, who has suffered from injuries this season, has started in only five Premier League matches. Jurrien Timber's impressive performance has caused White to completely lose his place in the squad.
According to the Spanish press, Ben White is considered the most ideal candidate to replace or complement Jules Kounde at Barcelona. The footballer's ability to play as both a central and right-back, his ball control skills, and disciplined game are a perfect fit for Hansi Flick's system.
Although Arteta praised White for his professional approach after the game against Brentford (2:0) in December, his desire to optimize resources in the squad increases the likelihood of this transfer happening.
