Ben White called up as Replacement of Alexander Arnold in England Euro 2020 Squad

Ben White was among those named by England coach Gareth Southgate in the provisional 33-man squad and now he has been selected ahead of England’s opener against Croatia on Sunday.

England will face Croatia at Wembley Stadium in their Group D opener on Sunday.

England boss took his time to decide which of his standby players would replace Alexander-Arnold with Everton defender Ben Godfrey and Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse becoming the other options, both of whom started the Romania game.

Brighton defender Ben White had never been involved in an England squad at any level before his recent call-up to the senior side.

Although Leeds was keen to permanently signing White, Brighton did not want to sell him since he had impressed Graham Potter's Premier League side after making 39 league and cup appearances this season after signing a four-year deal last September.
