Former Arsenal right-back Lauren, a key member of Arsene Wenger’s legendary “Invincibles” squad, has expressed concern over Ben White’s continued absence from the England national team.
White, who has not featured for the Three Lions since a reported fallout with assistant manager Steve Holland during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, has openly refused to play for his country.
Earlier this year, White was spotted playing Uno on a beach the same day England suffered a defeat against Brazil, raising eyebrows among fans and pundits alike. Despite his undeniable talent, White’s decision to distance himself from the national team has become a talking point, especially after Gareth Southgate and Steve Holland’s departure following England’s loss in the Euro 2024 final.
