Jadon Sancho Will Wear Sacred Back Number at MU

DBasia.news – The puzzle about the jersey number that will be used by Jadon Sancho at Manchester United has begun to be revealed. The 20-year-old winger is believed to be wearing Manchester United’s sacred jersey number next season.

Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund announced Sancho’s transfer deal earlier this month. The price of the 21-year-old player touched the figure of 73 million pounds.

At that time, Sancho was focusing on strengthening England in the 2020 European Cup. Naturally, his introduction as a new Manchester United player had to be delayed.

But it has been more than a week after England lost in the 2020 European Cup final, Sancho has never been introduced to Manchester United. Even though the person concerned is said to have carried out medical tests at Carrington.

Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits there are a number of details that must be completed in the transfer of Sancho. This has sparked speculation that what is meant is related to the jersey number.

“There are a few things to do with paperwork, but we hope we can announce one player, who has been in the news a lot about him. We are working, we want to have a strong squad,” said Solskjaer some time ago.

Leaked Sancho’s jersey number had leaked on social media. It is said that he will have the honor of wearing the back number 7 which is very sacred.

However, the validity of this is still in doubt. Moreover, the number still has the owner, namely Edinson Cavani.

Sancho himself is already synonymous with the number 7. He has worn it at Dortmund and sometimes with the England national team.

But Sancho has also used other jersey numbers. Some of them are numbers 9, 10, 11, 17, 21, and 23.

The problem is, the jersey numbers that Sancho usually wears already have owners. This certainly makes the management of Manchester United dizzy.

According to a report by The National News, Sancho will wear the number 16 jersey that was not used last season. Marcos Rojo was the last player to wear it.

Number 16 Manchester United is actually more synonymous with a player who plays as a central midfielder. Roy Keane and Michael Carrick are two players who shine with that jersey number.

Sancho also still has the opportunity to use other jersey numbers such as 12, 22, 24, and 25 which are still empty. The number 77 can also be chosen.

Everything is still possible. To be sure, Sancho’s jersey number will be known when Manchester United introduces him.
