Zlatan Ibrahimovic to take number 9 shirt from Anthony Martial

 

Ibrahimovic

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was  handed Manchester United’s number nine shirt as he looks set to be the main man at Old Trafford this season.
That means Anthony Martial, who wore it last season, will have to make do with the number 11 shirt instead.

Adnan Januzaj, who was United’s number 11 last season, moves to 15, Memphis Depay and Juan Mata keep hold of the seven and eight shirts respectively, while Marcus Rashford has been promoted from 39 to 19.

Perhaps Mata has a future at United under Jose Mourinho after all.

New boys Eric Bailly and Henrikh Mkhitaryan take the three and 22 shirts, while there’s a gaping hole at number six.
Perhaps that’s being saved for another new signing: Paul Pogba.
