James Garner Breaks Silence On £50M Everton Target: Does He Make Sense For The Toffees? James Garner marked his senior England debut on Friday evening. He delivered a Player of the Match performance in a pre-World Cup friendly against Uruguay at Wembley.
He earned widespread praise even though the game ended in a 1-1 draw. James Garner supports White after a dramatic Wembley night According to a report by iNews , Everton are targeting Arsenal defender Ben White for a summer transfer. The Merseyside club reportedly lead the race ahead of several other interested parties.
The 28-year-old White plays primarily at right-back but operates comfortably as a centre-back too. He came on as a second-half substitute. He scored England’s 81st-minute opener with a close-range finish from a corner.
However, the Arsenal man then conceded a penalty in the 94th minute. Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde converted the strike to rescue a point for Uruguay. Tuchel notably compared Garner to Valverde earlier in the week.
This made the Uruguayan’s decisive contribution feel ironic. White’s evening took a sharp turn. He entered the pitch to a chorus of boos from the Wembley crowd.
