After the recent departures of Marco Asensio, Karim Benzema, and Eden Hazard from Real Madrid, three important squad numbers became vacant: number 11, number 9, and number 7. The latter, in particular, is considered one of the most iconic in the club's history.
Following the news that left-back Fran García will switch to wearing the number 20 shirt, which was previously worn by Vinicius Jr, many fans wondered what the talented Brazilian player's new number would be, and after several hours, it has finally been revealed.
It has been confirmed that number 7 will be Vini Jr's new identity. This squad number has historically been associated with Real Madrid figures and legends, although the last player to wear it, Belgian Eden Hazard, did not perform satisfactorily. Now, with this change and a new commitment to a player who has shown great performances, there is hope to revitalize the number 7.
Vinicius scored 23 goals and provided 21 assists in the previous season, establishing himself as a key player in the team. Now, he joins the list of players who have worn the famous number 7 shirt at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, sharing that honor with names like Cristiano Ronaldo and Raúl.
The anticipation around Vinicius Jr. continues to grow, and Real Madrid fans hope that the young Brazilian will continue his progression and leave an indelible mark with the legendary number 7 on his back, as it should be remembered that great club legends have worn this number.
