• Ben White was booed by some fans when he was introduced as a second-half substitute in England’s game against Croatia at Wembley on Thursday.
• White had previously made himself unavailable for England selection after coming home from the 2022 World Cup during the tournament following a reported fallout with assistant manager Steve Holland.
• He has been brought back into the fold by Thomas Tuchel but has been booed by England fans before following his exile.
• White claimed earlier this week that fans might not boo him if they knew the full story about his exile.
• However, that did not stop some supporters booing the Arsenal defender when he came off the bench on Thursday night.
