Arsenal defender Ben White assured fans on Sunday that he is fine after suffering an injury scare during his team’s 4-0 thrashing of Wigan in the FA Cup fourth round at the Emirates.
The English right-back shared the update via his official Instagram account following the encounter.
White, who was named in Mikel Arteta’s starting XI for the tie against the League One side, was substituted in the second half after pulling up and hitting the deck.
A medic treated him on the pitch before Arteta made the decision to withdraw him.

Consequently, Arsenal supporters feared the former Brighton man could be set for a spell on the sidelines, with crucial fixtures against Wolves and London rivals Tottenham and Chelsea on the horizon.
However, White took to social media after the match to allay those fears.
According to the 28-year-old, he is fit and ready for Wednesday night’s trip to Molineux.
Sharing an image of himself in action after the comfortable win, White captioned the post: “Next round. No injuries.”
