White suffers hamstring injury

Arsenal have suffered another huge injury blow with defender Ben White ruled out for four weeks with a hamstring injury, according to Daily Mail.

The Gunners have been hampered by several injuries during the first half of the campaign and they have suffered yet another untimely setback.

White picked up a hamstring injury in the close win over Wolverhampton Wanderers and speaking after the game, manager Mikel Arteta said that the club were expecting bad news on the right-back.

It has now been confirmed that the England international will be on the sidelines for at least four weeks with the setback. This is a potential concern for Arsenal, given Jurrien Timber has been nursing a knock.

The Dutchman has been a regular in the starting XI for the Gunners despite his fitness concerns and his workload will increase with White and Cristhian Mosquera injured for the next few weeks.

Arsenal face Everton on the road in Saturday's Premier League clash.
