What Ben White will bring to Arsenal

By Aaron Catterson-Reid

Arsenal this week completed the signing of Ben White from Brighton on a long-term contract.

The Gunners' new centre half enjoyed three fruitful loan spells in the English footballing ladder before establishing himself with the Seagulls last season.

White consistently produced noteworthy displays last term, featuring 36 times in the Premier League as his standout performances earned him a place in England's Euro 2020 squad.

Defensive Skills

White's defensive versatility is a clear strength given he can perform as both an aggressive or conservative centre back, similar to former Arsenal stalwart Laurent Koscielny in that aspect.
