The discussions between the defender and the club for a new contract continue.

The Gunners defender Benjamin White has shared that he wants to play for the team ‘for as long as I can’ and feels that from the Premier League side also want him.

Ben became part of the North London club during the summer transfer window in 2021 as they bought him from Brighton & Hove Albion for 60 million dollars – a fee that seemed high during that period, but if we look back, it was worth it.

White formed an elite duo in the centre defense with Gabriel Magalhaes during the 2021/22 campaign. However, after that, Mikel Arteta put him at the right-back after William Saliba returned to Arsenal from his loan at Marseille.

Ben’s current deal with the Gunners expires in 2026 but both sides continue to talk about a contract extension that can be signed before the end of his current deal. White admitted that Arsenal is the only side he spent more than a year in and hopes he will be here for many more years.
