Arsenal star misses training ahead of Carabao Cup clash with Ipswich Town

Arsenal defender Ben White will miss training ahead of the Carabao Cup match against Ipswich Town, raising concerns about his availability. The 24-year-old was absent during training sessions prior to the game at Portman Road, leading to questions about his fitness for the encounter. White started in Arsenal's 2-0 victory over Sunderland at the weekend, but appeared uncomfortable with a groin problem late in the first half and was substituted at halftime, with Jurrien Timber coming on as a substitute.

Although White had started all six of Arsenal's matches this season, including their Community Shield triumph over Manchester City, his recent absence has added to the squad's uncertainty. Arteta's right-back options are starting to look thin when White is unavailable, as Cristhian Mosquera's return could be around the time of the Carabao Cup clash, and Mosquera's progress remains uncertain. The situation could also impact any potential England call-ups for White.
