Overview
- Ben White exited against West Ham in the 28th minute with a right-knee injury while playing at right-back.
- Mikel Arteta described White’s knee problem as not reassuring and confirmed Riccardo Calafiori was also out with a physical issue.
- Jurriën Timber has been sidelined since April, leaving few natural options and raising the prospect of using center-back Cristhian Mosquera on the flank.
- Arteta tried moving Declan Rice to right-back during the match, then reversed the change at halftime after the switch did not work.
- Some outlets say White could miss the May 30 final against Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest, but Arsenal have not issued a medical update confirming that.
