Ben White Leeds
With David Luiz leaving the club, the Gunners are eyeing a new centre-back and one in particular, with Ben White on their radar. White enjoyed a fantastic 2020/21 season at Brighton in the Premier League and earned himself a place in Gareth Southgate’s 26-man England squad for the Euros. Brighton chief executive Paul Barber admitted recently that the south coast club could leave this summer – but only if the price is right.
Paul Barber said: “We know some of our best players aren’t going to be with us forever and, if the right offer comes along – and it has to be the right offer – and they want to leave, then they can go. If we’ve got players leaving, then we’ve got back-up internally, and we can go out into the transfer market. We’re always looking ahead.”
Arsenal have also been linked with Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma this summer.
