Liverpool and Manchester United are both interested in Leeds United loanee Ben White.
That’s according to The Athletic, cited by the Mirror, who claim Arsenal’s Premier League rivals are weighing up a move for the Brighton defender.
The 22-year-old has been a key member of Marcelo Bielsa’s side this season, helping the Whites to the best defensive record in the second-tier.
White’s effortless displays have left many labelling him as a future star, and it looks as if both Liverpool and United could make their move in the coming months.

With Unai Emery still yet to resolve his defensive woes, we can’t believe that the Gunners aren’t one of the sides keeping tabs on White.
The Spaniard purchased William Saliba over the summer, and White could prove to be the perfect partner for the Frenchman at the heart of the defence.
He’s easily been one of the Championship’s standout stars during the opening months and hasn’t put a foot wrong in Yorkshire.
White’s ability on the ball, brilliant vision and excellent reading of the game are just three attributes that have caught the eye at Elland Road, so we think that the Gunners need to join the race for the in-demand youngster.
