Ben White forced to undergo surgery in latest blow to Arsenal's title challenge as defender faces WEEKS on the sidelines

Premier League

Nottingham Forest

<p>White has missed a series of games for Arsenal in recent weeks, including the Premier League clashes with Leicester City and Southampton and last month's Champions League win over Paris Saint-Germain. The defender pushed through the pain to complete 90 minutes against Inter and Chelsea, but he underwent a minor procedure this week to address the problem he'd been dealing with.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>According to <a href="https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/news/breaking-ben-white-undergoes-minor-30364379" target="_blank"><em>football.london</em></a>, White has been nursing a knee injury that also meant he started on the bench for the recent defeat to Newcastle. "It’s a little issue so we have to protect him," Mikel Arteta said at the time. He's now set to spend roughly eight weeks on the sidelines, according to <a href="https://x.com/ConMarbleHalls/status/1856697399059620147" target="_blank"><em>Con Harrison</em></a>, in another blow to Arsenal's title aspirations.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The international break comes at an ideal time for an Arsenal side winless in their last four league games and dealing with a growing injury list. Fellow defenders Riccardo Calafiori, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Kieran Tierney are also out, while Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/mikel-arteta-bleak-update-bukayo-saka-declan-rice-injuries-arsenal-draw-chelsea-serious-concern-for-england/blt2b26764963bf3aaf" target="_blank">had to be withdrawn during the draw to Chelsea</a> and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/england-squad-withdrawals-nations-league-bukayo-saka-declan-rice-cole-palmer-trent-alexander-arnold/blt11ded18b7cf67964" target="_blank">will miss England duty</a>.</p>

Arteta will hope to have some of his injured stars back when they take on Nottingham Forest on November 23.</p>
