Injury Blow For Arsenal As Star Defender Ruled Out For Rest Of Season

Arsenal defender Ben White will miss the rest of the season with a medial ligament injury, and is a major doubt for the World Cup, Sky Sports reports.

White came off injured in the first half against West Ham on Sunday. He will miss the Premier League season run-in, with Arsenal facing Burnley and Crystal Palace in their attempts to win their first top-flight title in 22 years, and the Champions League final at the end of May.

The injury means White, who was brought back into the England fold by Thomas Tuchel in March, also appears highly unlikely to feature at this summer’s World Cup in North America.
