Ben White has broken his silence after he prematurely left the England squad in Qatar. The Arsenal defender left the Three Lions' training base in Al Wakrah and returned home due to personal reasons.
He didn't feature in any of England's group stage fixtures as Gareth Southgate guided the nation to qualification into the knockout stages. The Three Lions saw out the remainder of the tournament with a 25-man squad - which was still larger than in past World Cups - because it is was too late to call-up a replacement.
England went out of the quarter-final after losing 2-1 against France. With White back under Mikel Arteta's stewardship and in training with Arsenal, he took to social media to break his silence since the early omission.
