• Defender sustained ‘significant medial ligament injury’

• Arsenal without both right-backs with Timber also out

Ben White’s World Cup hopes appear to be over after Arsenal said the ­England defender would miss the rest of the season owing to a knee injury sustained in their win over West Ham on Sunday.

White was forced off in the first half of Arsenal’s 1-0 victory and left the London Stadium with his injured knee in a brace. The ­Premier League leaders confirmed on Tuesday that the 28-year-old had sustained a “significant medial ligament injury” and would not feature in their final three fixtures, including the ­Champions League final against Paris ­Saint-Germain on 30 May.
