Frenkie de Jong remains reluctant to sign for Manchester United - and he might not even have his dream shirt number available if he does join them.
The 25-year-old, who's being flogged by Barcelona this summer amid a £14million salary dispute due to unpaid wages, is now mulling over a move to Old Trafford after the Red Devils struck a £63.5million agreement to sign him. But another new face may well rock up in Manchester first: Lisandro Martinez.
With personal terms agreed and a £46.5m fee finalised after United chiefs made the trip to Amsterdam, the defender's transfer is now a matter of time. Progress on Martinez's switch means that he'll be free to take the No.21 shirt at Old Trafford, having been vacated by Edinson Cavani at the end of last season.
