Martial Handed No. 9 Shirt

Manchester United's new signing Anthony Martial will wear the no.9 shirt after being added to Louis van Gaal's attacking ranks on transfer deadline day.

The 19-year-old acquisition from AS Monaco follows Radamel Falcao in taking the famous number which previously appeared on the backs of Reds strikers Dimitar Berbatov, Louis Saha, Andy Cole and Brian McClair in the Premier League era.

Cole, who scored 121 goals in 275 games for United, tweeted "Welcome aboard @AnthonyMartial" when ManUtd.com announced the French forward's arrival on Tuesday afternoon.
