Chances are, any player who has ever dreamed of lining up for Manchester United as a youngster also harboured hopes of donning the iconic number seven shirt.
It is a squad number that has been worn by some of the best the club has ever seen walk through the Old Trafford doors, from George Best to David Beckham. It's for that reason that when Jadon Sancho learned he'd be playing for the Red Devils, he made clear he wanted the seven shirt.
Unfortunately for the England international, at the time of his Old Trafford arrival, the number was already being occupied by veteran striker and Uruguay star Edinson Cavani. During negotiations with Borussia Dortmund to try and bring Sancho to the club, United officials attempted to find a way to give the winger the iconic shirt.
