Three new numbers have been allocated to members of the squad following the January transfer window, and head coach Graham Potter has confirmed that the Argentinian will link up with his teammates at the start of next week ahead of the next Premier League game against Sheffield United on February 22nd.

Defender Tariq Lamptey, who also arrived at the club on the final day of last month, will wear the number two shirt previously worn by former club captain and now player development coach Bruno.

It means the young England international will follow in the footsteps of El Capitan when he pulls on a blue and white shirt for the first time following his deadline day move from Chelsea.

Meanwhile, Beram Kayal will take the number 25 jersey for the rest of the campaign after being recalled from his loan spell at Charlton Athletic.

Also, the sacred 25 shirt is not just given out to any old Tom, Dick or Bobby! I expect to see King Kayal make some squads and get some minutes between now and the end of the season. Good luck to the man!

It's just a number at the end of the day but, wow, what a number to be given.

Absolutely. Beram gets to follow in the hallowed sleeves, of Jürgen Locadia, Scott Chamerlain, Craig Davies, Mark McCammon, Steve Claridge and Vegard Forren*


*Forren may have actually not ever put his on.

It's good to see Lamptey already making changes to honour the shirt.

Ditto for Ally Mac being given Maradona's number.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Sensationalist load of rubbish. The sort of crap White on talkbollocks would be raving on about.

It’s a number on a shirt.

Hopefully see him this season but not convinced and suspect U23 for now

He's literally just been given the number 2 shirt - that means first team!

 

[blue-shifted]

If he can't instantly control a 60 yard goal kick coming down from the heavens over his shoulder, then shift his weight to wrong foot the pressing opponents before curving a gorgeous pass infield with the outside of his foot, i'll drive him back to Chelsea myself

WTF have you done

 

[B-right-on]

Well good luck to the lad and here's hoping that he wears the number and the shirt with pride, knowing that he follows in the sleeves of one of our greats and becomes a 'ledge' (yoof talk apparently) all by himself.

Thumbed up in amusement.

Microsoft Paint 3D is a wonderful, terrible thing. I flipped his head with"magic select", to give him the beard, then flipped his face back...

An Argentinian playing in blue and white wearing the #10 shirt. The omens are good.
