Angel Gomes appears to have new Manchester United squad number - here's what it might mean

Angel Gomes appears to have been handed a new shirt number at Manchester United and it could mean that he will get a new role of the player. The 18-year-old has come through the ranks at United and made his debut two seasons ago in an FA Cup victory over Yeovil Town. Pictures of Gomes revealed the number 28 on his training kit - a much lower number than the 47 he wore on the back of his shirt last season. United have not officially announced the change, but it is worth noting that every other Red Devils player wore their correct number on their training kit. Another word, Gomes could be in contention for a place in the starting XI more regularly this campaign than last season.
