Regex to remove multiple white-spaces stops at first space

I am trying to find the correct regex to remove all white spaces for different formats of strings like:

A 41 FR 38 ( should become A41FR38)
DGT 4687 P ( should become DGT4687P)
POL 789 EU ( should become POL789EU )

I have tried:

[^\s]+

[^\d]+

and many others, none seem to work, they would only stop at the first space? For example POL 789 EU would become POL, and W 85 EU would become W

Is this possible?

- EDIT -

I have just discovered that the correct different strings would be HTML outputs. Such as :

.html">W 45 B 1 A 401 L</a>

so I have just tryed: html">([^<]*) and it outputs :

W 45 B 1 A 401 L

(still with spaces) What should I add to remove the spaces?

([^\s]+)/g

The g flag indicates that the regular expression should be tested against all possible matches in a string.

Even simpler simply use str_replace

echo str_replace(' ','','A 41 FR 38');

Results in:

A41FR38
