Sancho Gets Man United No. 25 Shirt, Cavani Keeps No. 7
There has been much speculation about which squad number the England international might acquire. There have been also rumors that Sancho could get the No. 7 shirt from Cavani, but these were wrong.
No. 25 add up to No. 7 (2+5=7)
Why Sancho chose No. 25? One reason is likely that the digits of No. 25 add up to No. 7 (2+5=7). Numbers that were free at Manchester United were No. 12, No. 16, No. 22, No. 24, and, the one he chose, No. 25.
Other players who worn the No. 25 at Manchester United include Antonio Valencia, Odion Ighalo, Quinton Fortune, and Jordi Cruyff.
Sancho could take the iconic No. 7 jersey sometimes in the future
It is possible that Sancho will eventually take the No. 7 jersey when Cavani moves on and it has been discussed.
The Jadon Sancho No. 25 shirt is of course already available to buy. Printing costs you 18 Euro.
Do you think Sancho will make the move to No. 7 when 34-year old Cavani leaves? Comment below.
