After joining Arsenal from Westham, Diglan Rice, who is valued at 100 million pounds (about 1 billion Hong Kong dollars), still chose the No. 41 jersey, which is usually given to the young players, and the reason why he likes the No. 41 is related to his own experience of growing up.
Mr. De Grasse said: "The number 41 is a plum from my youth training days. After the shirt manager gave me this number, I've been wearing it ever since, and to be honest, I've told my dad that no matter what happens in the future, I'm going to wear 41 as much as possible. The 24-year-old England international also admitted that he is superstitious and is worried that changing his shirt number may affect his luck and performance.
As for not having the number 41, DeGrasse said he would choose either the number 4 or the number 6, as he usually wears the number 4 when he plays for the England national team.
