Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>England manager, Gareth Southgate, has revealed that Arsenal defender Ben White has decided not to play in their latest matches.<\/p>\n

This all but rules White out of the European Championships in the summer.<\/p>\n

According to Southgate, the player relayed his snub through the Gunners\u2019 technical director Edu in a phone call last week.<\/p>\n

The latest Three Lions squad was unveiled today.<\/p>\n

Speaking at Wembley on Thursday, Southgate said: \u201cWe had a call from Edu last week to say that Ben didn\u2019t want to be considered for England squads at this time. It\u2019s a great shame.\u201d<\/p>\n

Southgate, however, insisted he did not want to close the door on bringing White back into the fold in the future.<\/p>\n
