Garnacho suddenly showed off his new shirt number 17, the number rookie Rasmus Hojlund is expected to wear at Old Trafford. The reason behind this… rivalry among MU stars.On his personal page, his brother Roberto showed off a fresh image of Alejandro Garnacho in MU’s new No. 17 shirt, both home and away.
The 19-year-old young star of the Red Devils attracted attention when he also held an outfit for his soon-to-be-born son in his hand.
Garnacho is a young player who has made great strides under Erik ten Hag and has a promising future at Old Trafford. At the beginning of the summer, it seemed that this player would be given the number 7 shirt at MU, a number Garnacho really liked.
However, Mason Mount from Chelsea is the owner. Therefore, Garnacho entered the new season still with shirt number 49 on his back.
But now this player has changed to another number, also related to number 7 but 17, the shirt number Fred left behind.
Previously, according to the British press, rookie Rasmus Hojlund will wear this shirt number at Old Trafford. At first thought, Garnacho… won the shirt with the striker from Atalanta, but maybe that’s not the case.
The reason is that MU had a force majeure change, with another empty shirt number – number 11 from Mason Greenwood. Initially, the Red Devils intended to bring the English striker back after the scandal of his private life, but because of the MU female players and public backlash, the plan was cancelled.
Therefore, Hojlund is expected to wear the number 11, while Garnacho takes the number 17 shirt. The Danish rookie is completely healthy, will have his debut for MU during the trip to Arsenal at 22:30 on September 3, round 4. English Premier League.
