White has not played for England since a 3-0 friendly win against Ivory Coast in March 2022.

He replaces Jarell Quansah in Thomas Tuchel's expanded 35-man squad after the Bayer Leverkusen defender was ruled out with a thigh injury.

There was no place in the squad for Real Madrid defender Trent Alexander-Arnold.

White has made only seven Premier League appearances for leaders Arsenal this season.

However, he has played in eight of their 10 Champions League games in their run to the quarter-finals and started Sunday's 2-0 Carabao Cup final defeat by Manchester City.
