And it looks like he worked out for the most of his summer vacation, based on what he was lifting at the gym.

As the Gunners worked out in the preseason, fans were taken aback to witness White, 26, chest-pressing two 40 kg weights.

One commented on Arsenal’s Instagram post: “Throwing 80kg up, my guy.”

Another added: “Ben White pressing 40kgs, my kinda guy.”

A third wrote: “Benny with the 40s.”

Gabriel Jesus, a striker for Brazil, in contrast, was carrying two 22.5kg weights.

Martin Odegaard was also rocking a toned physique prior to joining Ethan Nwaneri and Thomas Partey on the exercise bikes.

On merit, White would have most likely been included in the England team.

Odegaard is looking in fine shape

Odegaard appears to be in good health.

However, after withdrawing from the World Cup in Qatar for “personal reasons,” he has not appeared for the Three Lions.

Gareth Southgate stated, “Clearly on form, I can’t sit here and say he doesn’t deserve to be here,” following the selection of his team.
