Ben White admits he did not need to much convincing to join Arsenal. The 23-year-old defender joined the Gunners this afternoon from Albion, who received a club record £50 million for him. After joining White was asked what did Mikel Arteta say to convince him to join the club. However, White admits he did not need much convincing:
Ben White said: “I don’t think I needed too much convincing to be fair, obviously Arsenal speaks for itself. I spoke to the gaffer a number of times during the summer and I got good vibes and the way the gaffer wants to play I can hopefully produce quality in this team and get Arsenal back.”
White also revealed when he found about Arsenal’s interest in him.
Ben White said: “It was when I was away with England that is when it got a bit more serious. So, it was obviously nice to find out and to be here is unbelievable.”
