Ben White suffers groin injury during Arsenal's match against Sunderland
Summary

Arsenal's Ben White was substituted during the Premier League match against Sunderland due to a groin injury. White was seen clutching his groin late in the first half, raising concerns about the nature of his issue. Reports indicate he may have only tightness, which could see him return in less than a week, but an adductor strain could sideline him for one to three weeks. Arsenal will assess his condition ahead of their League Cup match against Ipswich Town on Tuesday. Jurrien Timber replaced White in the second half, and the team's right-back selection may be adjusted depending on White's prognosis.
