Alejandro Garnacho’s brother LEAKS Man Utd star’s new kit number with winger no longer wearing No49 after pal’s transfer
ALEJANDRO GARNACHO and his brother have revealed the Manchester United youngster's new number.
Garnacho normally has the number 49 on his back, but it looks like that is about to change.
The 19-year-old seems as if he will be wearing number 17 this season instead.
Garnacho's brother Roberto posted a picture of the pair on X (formerly Twitter) which showed them both sporting Man United shirts with "Garnacho 17" on the back.
Roberto shared the snap with the caption: "AG17".
The Argentina international is able to switch his number to 17 after Fred, who used to sport the number 17 on his shirt, left the club this summer.
The Brazilian midfielder joined Turkish outfit Fenerbahce for a fee of £13million earlier in the window.
And Garnacho has wasted no time in claiming his old number for his own.
The youngster could debut his new look this weekend when United take on Arsenal in the Premier League.
The Red Devils are in for their toughest task of the season so far when they travel to the Emirates.
