Pep Guardiola and Manchester City are among the suitors who want to sign Arsenal defender Ben White during the summer transfer window.
The 28-year-old could leave the Emirates Stadium in the summer, given the fact that he has fallen behind Jurrien Timber in the pecking order.

White was really poor against Man City in the Carabao Cup final; however, City remain one of the clubs that are keen on the defender.
Following White’s recent recall to the England squad, the race to sign him is really starting to heat up, with several Premier League clubs keen.
Manchester City want to sign Arsenal defender Ben White
Manchester City want to sign Arsenal defender Ben White in the summer, but they are not alone, according to TEAMTalk.
The Premier League’s second-place team are keeping a close eye on White’s situation at Arsenal ahead of the next transfer window.
The Carabao Cup winners see the defender as a great option to bolster their squad, especially given the injury troubles they have had at the back.
The £50 million defender has proved plenty of times this season that he remains a very top player, although Mikel Arteta has refused to use him.
Instead, Arteta has run Timber into the ground, and the Dutch defender has recently picked up an injury, which made his decision to ignore White rather strange.

However, Man City are not alone in the race, as Everton also want to sign White in the summer, along with Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea.
All five clubs seem to be keeping close tabs on the former Brighton player, and perhaps Arteta should have a rethink about using him more.
Arsenal ready to replace Ben White
Arsenal are already looking at right-backs ahead of the summer transfer window, which suggests that the Gunners are ready to sell White.
Tino Livramento has been linked with a move to Arsenal, although he could be tricky to get out of Newcastle, given his importance at St James’ Park.
Livramento would jump at the chance of signing for Arsenal, so there could be a chance the Gunners get him if he pushes hard enough for the move.
The 23-year-old has become one of the best full-backs in the Premier League over the last 12 months and would be a great signing for the Gunners.
