Dylan Rice, known as "Mr. Billion Pound", has been obsessed with the number 41 since his move from Westham to Arsenal, a number often reserved for young players. Rice's preference for the number 41 is inseparable from his upbringing since childhood.
Rice said, "No. 41 was my number from my youth days and I have worn it since the jersey steward assigned it to me. Frankly, I had a discussion with my father that whatever happens in the future, I will wear 41 as much as possible." The 24-year-old England international also confessed that he is a bit superstitious and fears that changing his shirt number will affect his luck and performance.
If it does become impossible to continue wearing No. 41, Rice has revealed that he may opt for No. 4 or No. 6, which he usually wears when representing the England national team.
