ANKARA (AA) - Brighton defender Ben White on Monday joined the English squad for the UEFA EURO 2020, which is set to begin on Friday.

"Brighton & Hove Albion’s Ben White has been added to England’s 26-man squad for UEFA EURO 2020. The 23-year-old replaces Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold, who was ruled out of the tournament last week through injury," the English national football team said in a statement.

In response, the 23-year-old tweeted: "Beyond proud and honoured! I’ll give it my everything @England."

White made his England debut in a friendly against Austria on June 2, and has two caps for his nation in total. Last season, he made 39 appearances for Brighton.

England will face Croatia, Scotland and Czech Republic in the tournament's group stage.
