Rashford Becomes Manchester United's New Number 10

Marcus Rashford has received the number 10 shirt for Manchester United. Rashford debuted his Manchester United number 10 kit in Sunday's friendly against Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena

Marcus Rashford Changes Shirt Number For Third Time

Interestingly, Rashford has had his squad number changed for a second time by Jose Mourinho. Mourinho gave Rashford the number 19 in 2016 after the 20-year-old began his United career with the number 39 under Louis van Gaal. Van Gaal felt strikers should have the traditional centre forward number on their back but Rashford was not an out-and-out striker at academy level..

Zlatan Ibrahimovic inherited Wayne Rooney's number 10 a year ago before he moved to the LA Galaxy in March. Rooney wore the 10 for 10 years.

Manchester United are yet to confirm their complete squad numbers for the new campaign.
