Ben White reportedly had a heated confrontation with England assistant manager Steve Holland during the World Cup in Qatar. Despite being considered for selection, White who hasn’t played for England since before the tournament has expressed his current unwillingness to be included in the squad. Gareth Southgate expressed disappointment citing White’s recent good form and his desire to include him.
Details of the altercation between White and Holland emerged with Holland expressing frustration over White’s attitude towards tactical information and his public disinterest in football beyond his playing career. While White left the England camp for personal reasons unrelated to the incident, his decision not to be considered for selection has left Southgate disappointed.
Southgate clarified that there are no issues between him and White or Holland and emphasized the need to focus on available players who can contribute to the team.
