Manchester United Have Handed Their Iconic Number Seven Shirt. by hamzak61: 3:25pm On Aug 07, 2015 |
The Red Devils released their squad numbers
earlier today and it has been revealed that Depay
will wear the iconic number seven shirt for next
season.
Angel di Maria took over the number last season
when he arrived at Old Trafford amidst much
fanfare, but his move to PSG opened up the slot
again and the Dutchman has taken over the
mantel from the Argentine.
Depay was the highest scorer in the Eredivisie
last season and helped PSV Eindhoven to break
Ajax’s recent stranglehold on the Dutch league
title.
He was Van Gaal’s first signing of the summer
and wore the number nine shirt during the club’s
pre-season tour of the US.
Manchester United fans will be hoping that
Depay fares better than their last number seven
and helps the club to challenge for top honours
next season.
Players such as George Best, Bryan Robson,
David Beckham, Eric Cantona and Cristiano
Ronaldo have worn the number seven shirt in the
past at Old Trafford.
The club’s other new signings, namely Matteo
Darmian, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Morgan
Schneiderlin and Sergio Romero will wear the
numbers 36, 31, 28 and 20 on the back of their
shirts respectively.
Victor Valdes, who is expected to be on his way
out of the club, has not been assigned a squad
number. |
