Carsley: "Ben White asked me not to contact him about the England team"

England's acting head coach Lee Carsley has confirmed that Arsenal defender Ben White has asked not to be called up. The 26-year-old has not been called up to the England 2022 World Cup squad since he left the Three Lions' location in Qatar ahead of schedule.

"Do I plan to speak to White before the matches in October? No, I don't plan to.

We discussed it when the application for these matches was announced. Every player available for call-up to the England team has a chance. As far as I know, he asked not to be contacted. If that changes, then it will change.

I think it's important that we have real competition in all positions, and the more players available to choose from, the better," Carsley was quoted as saying by the BBC.
