Several younger Manchester United players have decided to change their shirt numbers ahead of the new season.

The Red Devils are beginning their preparations for the new season with a friendly against Leeds United.

Kobbie Mainoo, Matej Kovar, Alvaro Fernandez and Dan Gore will all get a chance to play in the game.

They will also have new shirt numbers, compared to what they wore last term.

Mainoo will get the no37, Kovar has picked the no38, Fernandez will don 42, and Gore will have the no44 shirt.

All of these young players are hoping to impress boss Erik ten Hag during preseason.

While not all of them will be part of the first team this term, one or two may hope for extended game time when competitive action begins.
