In the latest development, Manchester United has officially announced the signing of Mason Mount for the upcoming season. The Red Devils have acquired a young midfielder for a whopping sum of 60 Million euros from Chelsea. Mount will wear the iconic No. 7 jersey for United in the upcoming seasons.

While there were initial talks about giving Alejandro Garnacho the coveted No. 7 jersey, Mount has been picked to carry on the history of renowned players. This jersey number has brought enormous glory to the club. It has been worn by players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Eric Cantona, David Beckham, and Bryan Robson. It’s worth noting that The No. 7 shirt is extremely important at Manchester United.

It was absent from the ground since Ronaldo’s transfer to Al-Nassr in January has fans waiting for the next player to don the legendary number. Mount has been selected for this prestigious award due to his remarkable abilities, adaptability, and goal-scoring ability. However, he will surely be under enormous pressure, as previous wearers of the shirt, such as Angel Di Maria, Edinson Cavani, and Alexis Sanchez, have struggled to make an impression.

Mount has represented England in the number 7 jersey

Notably, this is not the first time the 24-year-old former Chelsea midfielder will don number 7 in a football match. He has represented his national team and Chelsea’s under-23 team in the same jersey. However, in the senior competition, he donned the number 19 jersey.

Mount will join his new teammates in preparing for the forthcoming season, looking forward to making his Premier League debut for Manchester United against Wolves on the opening weekend. Fans will be hoping that he can emulate former No. 7 shirt wearers and contribute to the team’s quest for victory.

Mason Mount’s selection for the No. 7 shirt displays the club’s unfailing faith in his talent and potential. As the 24-year-old midfielder begins this new chapter in his career, all eyes will be on him to see if he can live up to the expectations of wearing one of the world’s most famous shirts.
