Ben White

Having signed for Brighton from Southampton, White is yet to feature for the Seagulls and has spent his time out on loan at a host of clubs.

White got his first taste of senior football in the fourth tier of English football at Newport County in 2017-18. He made 52 appearances for the club and won the Player of the Year award.

His performances led to him spending 2018-19 on loan at League One side Peterborough United.

The youngster continued his rise up the ranks by going on loan at Championship side Leeds United. His impressive performances have seen him become a mainstay in the Leeds’ backline as the Whites push for a much-awaited return to the Premier League.
