The Mirror lists five candidates who could replace Aubameyang as captain of the Gunners, with Ben White and others on the list

After Aubameyang was removed from the squad for the last match against Southampton for disciplinary offences, the outside world has been calling for a change of arsenal captain, and the Mirror lists five possible replacements, they are Ben White, Gabriel, Ramsdale, Lacazette and Xhaka.

Ben White:

Ben White only joined Arsenal this summer, but he is now highly regarded by the club. Arsenal's defence has improved significantly this season and Ben White's influence is a big reason.

Gabriel:

Gabriel has come by leaps and bounds this season and he's the kind of player fit to be captain. Gabriel is usually the organiser of Arsenal's defence, and the Brazilian is currently an authority figure in Arsenal's dressing room alongside Ben White.

Ramsdale:

Rumsdale has excelled after becoming Arsenal's starting goalkeeper, passionate, infectious, able to influence those around him and can lead by example on the pitch.

Lacazette:

Lacazette proved his worth by scoring a brilliant goal against Southampton, his contract with Arsenal expires next summer, but the situation has changed now and Arsenal are likely to leave him behind. In the match against Southampton, Lacazette wore the captain's armband, which could be a hint of who Arteta would pick next.

Xhaka:

When Xhaka was stripped of his position as captain of Arsenal by Emery, it caused dissatisfaction among some players in the team, believing that the club did not protect Xhaka well, and it was possible for Arteta to re-select Xhaka as captain.
