Manchester United FC has announced in a high profile manner that it has welcomed Anthony Mafios, a powerful striker who has moved from Ajax for a whopping transfer fee of 99 million euros. He will wear the number 21, which symbolizes the spirit of the Red Devils. The number was once a trophy for Kayuni, and now United fans are expecting the Brazilian talent to continue the legend and bring glory to the team.
During his time at Ajax, Anthony Maffios wore the number 11 shirt, however, at Manchester United, this number has been taken up by Grillenhaupt. Despite the fact that Grillenhaupt has been temporarily suspended due to personal problems, Anthony Maffios has not been conflicted and has chosen to wear the number 21, a move that also shows his low profile and humility.
Looking back to last summer, the signing of Cairo forced Caveney to cede the number 7 shirt, and the change was notoriously controversial for a while. Now that Anthony Maffios has taken over the hat, perhaps this particular number will shine once again at the Stade de l'Ortford.
Notably, reserve goalkeeper Dubafka, who has moved to United from Newcastle, will wear the No. 31 jersey to provide more support to United's goalkeeping line.
