Laura Woods has urged England boss to reconsider after the Arsenal star was not named in the latest Three Lions squad.
despite his impressive club form for the Gunners, who are currently eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
The 25-year-old has registered several strong displays at right-back for Mikel Arteta’s team this season and can also operate as a centre-back.
England face Italy on Thursday and on Sunday as their Euro 2024 qualifying campaign gets underway.
White was selected for the World Cup in Qatar in the winter .
talkSPORT pundit Woods, who is an Arsenal fan, told the radio station on Wednesday: ‘You know what I’m disappointed about? And I don’t know what happened behind the scenes… I’ve spoken to people who have a semi-good idea of it… Ben White.
‘Is there no way back? Do you know what I mean? Ben White is playing some brilliant football. He’s versatile across that back-line. Right-back, centre-back, you can utilise him there.
‘Someone like Gareth Southgate, who has a great connection with that team, surely must sit down and say, ‘let’s discuss a way back’.’
White scored in Arsenal’s 3-2 win over AFC Bournemouth earlier this month and provided an assist in the 4-1 victory against on Sunday.
as he told his channel: ‘He’s playing really, really well.
‘Arsenal are on fire and these are the sort of players that when you are naming your England squad, you should be picking these players in form.
‘‘Whatever happened in the World Cup happened… I’ve got no scoop on this. But something [else] has gone on there.
‘It’s just not right. [Gareth Southgate is] selecting Harry Maguire and players like that. It just screams of a fall out.’
