Impact White has been back from his injury for some time now, but has yet to earn much of a role with the squad, starting in one of his two appearances since Sept. 16, earning 65 minutes of play. That said, the club has been managing his minutes and limiting the defender, ensuring he can maintain fitness after a setback to begin the season. It still appears the right-back is more of a rotational option behind Jurrien Timber moving forward, although he should receive more opportunities for minutes, especially if injuries occur in the defense.

Absent from training White was not in training Thursday ahead of Saturday's match against Fulham, according to Sky Sports.

Impact White looks to be on the outside looking in for Saturday's contest, as the defender was not available for training Thursday. The reason his his absence is still undisclosed, but this is a brutal spell for him, as he has struggled with injuries this season, only appearing twice all season. He will likely now be questionable for Saturday, likely to be limited if an option, as he has gone unused off the bench in four of his six appearances this season.

Out Tuesday White (undisclosed) is out for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Athletic Club, per manager Mikel Arteta. "Gabi, Kai, Ben and Martin are still out, unfortunately."

Impact White is still out, despite returning to the bench for a weekend clash with Nottingham Forest. It appears that return was more to do with making up squad numbers than actual fitness. White's next chance to return to action will be a Sunday clash with Manchester City back in the Premier League.

On bench Saturday White (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Nottingham Forest.

Still unavailable White (undisclosed) is out for Sunday's match against Liverpool.

Impact White is not in the call once again as he continues to miss out through injury, not passing his testing after being hopeful to play. He will now have the international break to train and work on his fitness, hopefully shaking off his issues by the time they return to play.

Impact White is still recovering from his undisclosed injury, but could come through fit for Sunday's match, with the defender questionable for the contest. It appears he will have to go through some testing to be an option, possibly playing if he passes. Even if he is fit, he will probably see a bench spot, with Jurrien Timber likely to earn the start on the right side of the defense.

Missing from team White (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's match against Leeds United.

Impact White will not make the team sheet after being a late call for Saturday's contest, with the defender appearing not to pass his testing ahead of the match. The good news is that Jurrien Timber slides into his spot relatively easily, as he started at right-back last season. However, the club will hope for White to return soon, as he is a solid depth option in the defense.

Impact White was forced off in the season opener and didn't train earlier this week, leading to some thoughts he may miss out. However, he is now a late call, needing to pass some testing to be an option for the club. He did see the start last contest, but with his uncertainty now, Jurrien Timber is his likely replacement.

Not training Wednesday White (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in team training during the open session at the Emirates on Wednesday, according to Simon Collings of The Standard.

Impact White walked off the pitch in the second half of the season opener against Manchester United due to an apparent injury on Sunday, and the issue was initially expected to be minor. That said, the right-back was not spotted in training with the team on Wednesday, which could suggest he is dealing with something more significant and makes him a doubt for the clash against Leeds on Saturday. If White has to miss the game or only find a spot on the bench, Jurrien Timber will be expected to replace him on the right side of the backline.

AUGUST 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Forced off injured White (undisclosed) was forced off in the 71st minute of Sunday's 1-0 victory against Manchester United due to an apparent injury, according to Football London.

Impact White walked off the pitch in the second half of the season opener against Manchester United due to an apparent injury. That said, he was spotted walking normally during the after-game celebrations with the fans, suggesting the injury should not be a major one but more of a precaution, as he was out a long time last season dealing with an injury and may still be fragile. That said, if the issue proves to be serious, Jurrien Timber will get a larger role at right-back for the Gunners.

AUGUST 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ends though season with assist White provided an assist in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Southampton for the season finale, capping a difficult campaign with 26 appearances.

Impact White assisted the opener on Sunday with a pinpoint cross to Kieran Tierney and remained solid in defense throughout the game. He dealt with aerial threats and made key tackles to help see out the win. White had a tough season overall, missing most of it due to a knee injury. He played less than 1,200 minutes in the Premier League this season after logging at least 2,800 minutes in every season since 2019. The Englishman will aim to come back fully fit for the preseason to start the season in good conditions, as he is expected to play a big part in the backline for the next campaign, although he will be in competition with Jurrien Timber for the right-back position.

MAY 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Back in starting role White registered one tackle won and four clearances in Sunday's 1-0 win over Newcastle.

Impact White has now strung together two straight starts after he was starting at right-back Sunday, seeing the full 90 minutes of play. He should continue in this role for the season finale, with Jurien Timber (ankle) done for the season. This is a good period for the defender, as he was their regular starter at right-back before an injury and losing his job to Timber.

MAY 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Makes appearance off bench White (undisclosed) made a late appearance off the bench Tuesday in Arsenal's 1-0 loss to PSG in the first leg of the Champions League semifinal.

Impact The defender played just seven minutes, but should have a bigger role Saturday against Bournemouth with Arsenal likely to rest its top players. White should see plenty of action, as Bournemouth have scored 53 goals in league play.

Bench spot Tuesday White (undisclosed) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against PSG.

Impact White has returned to the team sheet from his undisclosed injury after missing only one match, earning a spot on the bench. He will likely remain in a rotational role throughout the final month of the season if he can remain fit, only starting in two of his 11 appearances on the team sheet since returning from his long-term injury in February.

Impact White got back in training ahead of Tuesday's clash with PSG and has a chance to return before the Champions League showdown. The fact that the injury wasn't serious enough to hold White out of training is a good sign for his recovery after going the full 90 against Ipswich on April 20.

Impact White is heading to the sidelines for Wednesday's match, with the defender dealing with some issues from their last outing. The good news is he will have around a week to recover before their UCL semi-final against PSG. He has been serving in more of a rotational role and has only started in one of his four UCL appearances since returning from injury, so he will likely see a bench role if fit for that contest.

APRIL 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Bench spot Wednesday White (undisclosed) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against Real Madrid.

Impact White was dealing with a slight knock after suffering an issue in training, but has put that behind him to earn a bench spot Wednesday. He appeared off the bench in the first leg and possibly could do the same Wednesday, especially if the club goes for a more defensive lineup near the end to preserve the advantage.

Impact White is back in the call after an absence due to a knock he suffered in training. He only saw a minute of action in the first leg, so he will likely be set for the bench during his return. However, this is good news, adding another solid defensive option back to their full-back room.
