Manchester United made their statement signings yesterday evening when they confirmed Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui have joined the club.

United subsequently confirmed De Ligt will wear the number four shirt and Mazraoui number three.

Phil Jones and Eric Bailly were among the most recent players to wear those numbers for United.

It can only be hoped the new pair avoid the same injury misfortune as the older ones.
