Transfer news: United sign Patrick Dorgu
ArticleThe 20-year-old Dane joins from Lecce on a deal until June 2030, with the option of an additional year.
The Denmark international follows in the footsteps of the likes of Ji-sung Park, Brian McClair and John Curtis, who have previously been allocated that position in the squad.
Goalkeeper Lee Grant was the last to have it, during the 2021/22 season.
Dorgu has worn the no.13 ever since his time with Midtjylland and it had been his current number at Lecce. The 20-year-old has also played in it for Denmark but appeared in no.5 and no.15 as well for his country.
Meanwhile, Heaven showed off his no.26 shirt as part of the presentation, as the pair were met with warm applause from the Old Trafford faithful.
