England manager, Gareth Southgate, has refused to elaborate on why Ben White left the World Cup squad.

Southgate insisted he will not react to reports that it was due to a bust-up with his assistant coach, Steve Holland.

Last week, the Football Association announced that White would leave the squad due to “personal reasons.”
