Arsenal had a fantastic transfer window last summer. Andrea Berta and Mikel Arteta ensured that squad depth will not be a problem for the Gunners this season.
In the last few seasons, the Gunners lost the title race because of the lack of squad depth. However, this season, they have signed some excellent players.
That is why some of their key stars who used to be regular starters are not getting enough game time. So, some of them are planning to move away from the club to get game time.
One such player is Ben White. The Englishman started the last two games for the Gunners. However, in key games, Mikel Arteta prefers to start Jurrien Timber over Ben White.
It was evident during Arsenal’s Premier League clash against Liverpool. That is why speculations have risen over his long-term future at the club.
Meanwhile, Transfer News Live has reported that Ben White is a concrete transfer target for Everton. Also, their Merseyside rivals, Liverpool, are tracking him.
After Conor Bradley’s injury, the Reds have entered the market to find a new right-back. They do have Jeremie Frimpong. But the Dutchman is more effective going forward.
That is why signing a player like Ben White can turn their season around. In the middle of all these rumours, Arsenal have made a decision about the future of Ben White.
According to football.london, the Gunners have “zero interest” in letting Ben White leave in January. Mikel Arteta have realized the importance of squad depth.
Even though the Gunners are at the top of the Premier League table by six points, the Spaniard knows anything can happen.
That is why Arsenal would like to keep their best players as they look to win their first Premier League title in over two decades.
