Arsenal defender Ben White has linked up with his Gunners team-mates in Dubai for some mid-season friendlies and warm weather training just weeks after he pulled out of the England World Cup squad.
The versatile right-back sparked headlines and rumours aplenty when he withdrew from the Three Lions squad and left their Qatar training base during the group stage of the tournament, though it has since been revealed that White's departure was prompted by an alleged bust-up between himself and assistant boss Steve Holland.
The 25-year-old failed to play a single minute for his country in Qatar during the three games he was there for and though the FA cited personal reasons as the explanation behind his mysterious exit, it is rumoured the reported bust-up is what convinced White to head home.
