Ben White sent a heartfelt message to Arsenal supporters.
The 25-year-old was voted as the Gunners’ Player of the Month for November.
White has had a stunning season with Arsenal, helping Mikel Arteta’s side reach the top of the Premier League.
Even more impressive is the fact that he’s been operating in an unfamiliar right-back role since August, with William Saliba and Gabriel forming a brilliant centre-back partnership.
Here’s how White reacted on Twitter to the award.
He said: “Hi guys. I just wanted to give you a quick message and to say thank you so much for voting for me for Player of the Month. Really appreciate it and I’m just so thankful for the support you’ve shown me this season and every game.”
White will be thankful to be back at Arsenal, following the World Cup.
The former Leeds United loanee left the Three Lions’ camp in Qatar midway through the campaign, with a statement citing ‘personal reasons’.
However, The Daily Star later reported that the player had had a bust-up with Gareth Southgate’s assistant Steve Holland in a behind-the-scenes incident.
White has not spoken on the speculation as of yet, and he may never do.
But it’s definitely positive that he’s back at Arsenal and focusing on the rest of the campaign now.
