Gareth Southgate has addressed reports that Ben White had a 'bust-up' with England's assistant manager Steve Holland at their World Cup base in Qatar.
The Gunners defender hadn't featured for Gareth Southgate's side before his departure, nor was he available for the Wales clash due to illness. He then left the squad with the FA citing personal reasons as the cause.
A statement initially read: "Ben White has left England's training base in Al Wakrah and returned home for personal reasons. The Arsenal defender is not expected to return to the squad for the remainder of the tournament. We ask that the player's privacy is respected at this moment in time."
