Injured against Wolves White was forced off in the first half of Saturday's match against Wolves with a possible hamstring injury.

Impact White made it 30 minutes before going down Saturday while holding his hamstring. Forced into the starting XI in his fourth straight match, it's likely that was too much for the defender who has battled numerous injuries the past couple seasons. The hope is that it's a minor hamstring injury, but either way, it likely means he won't be back until January. Myles Lewis-Skelly came on for him against Wolves with Riccardo Calafiori being suspended.

Impact White has been back from his injury for some time now, but has yet to earn much of a role with the squad, starting in one of his two appearances since Sept. 16, earning 65 minutes of play. That said, the club has been managing his minutes and limiting the defender, ensuring he can maintain fitness after a setback to begin the season. It still appears the right-back is more of a rotational option behind Jurrien Timber moving forward, although he should receive more opportunities for minutes, especially if injuries occur in the defense.

He will likely now be questionable for Saturday, likely to be limited if an option, as he has gone unused off the bench in four of his six appearances this season.

Impact White was forced off in the season opener and didn't train earlier this week, leading to some thoughts he may miss out. However, he is now a late call, needing to pass some testing to be an option for the club. He did see the start last contest, but with his uncertainty now, Jurrien Timber is his likely replacement.

Not training Wednesday White (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in team training during the open session at the Emirates on Wednesday, according to Simon Collings of The Standard.

Impact White walked off the pitch in the second half of the season opener against Manchester United due to an apparent injury on Sunday, and the issue was initially expected to be minor. That said, the right-back was not spotted in training with the team on Wednesday, which could suggest he is dealing with something more significant and makes him a doubt for the clash against Leeds on Saturday. If White has to miss the game or only find a spot on the bench, Jurrien Timber will be expected to replace him on the right side of the backline.

Forced off injured White (undisclosed) was forced off in the 71st minute of Sunday's 1-0 victory against Manchester United due to an apparent injury, according to Football London.

Impact White walked off the pitch in the second half of the season opener against Manchester United due to an apparent injury. That said, he was spotted walking normally during the after-game celebrations with the fans, suggesting the injury should not be a major one but more of a precaution, as he was out a long time last season dealing with an injury and may still be fragile. That said, if the issue proves to be serious, Jurrien Timber will get a larger role at right-back for the Gunners.
