Ben White
Ben White suffered a knee injury in November which forced him to undergo surgery keeping him side-lined for a long period of time.
There is a chance that White misses the remainder of the season, however, his most likely return will come in March at the earliest.
At the time of his surgery, Arteta said: “Ben is going to be out for months. We had to make a decision in the last few weeks, unfortunately. It got to a point where we had to protect the player, and we decided to do the surgery.”
Expected return date – Saturday 8 March vs Manchester United
