Manchester City 'join race for Ben White'

Manchester City have reportedly joined the race for Brighton & Hove Albion centre-back Ben White.

The 22-year-old has been in impressive form on loan at Leeds United during the 2019-20 campaign, playing in every minute of the club's Championship season to date.

A host of Premier League teams - including Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal - have previously been credited with an interest in the centre-back.

However, according to The Athletic, City are also keen on White, who spent the second half of the 2018-19 season on loan with Peterborough United in League One.

Leeds are also said to be keen to complete a permanent deal for the defender but will seemingly face competition from a host of Premier League clubs.

White's current deal with Brighton expires in the summer of 2022.
