2022/23 Squad Numbers

Tielemans retaining 8 is also interesting. Could arguably given that to KDH and told Youri to shift it. No games leading up to the World Cup should force players to move. 
 

As it stands I guess we lose him and Soyuncu for free at the end of the season, along with Fofana and maybe Maddison. Terrifying 😭!

I do think if we unload two of Hamza/Soumare/Mendy, Brunt might get promoted.

 

Wright I wonder about: A Championship loan would be a given if he was younger, but he might need to kick on with his career.

 

Monday's U21 will be interesting: Will Brunt and Wright be in the squad? (BTW, when they announced the return to U21's they said they would also increase the number of overage players allowed- does anyone know what they changed it to?)

Allowed to use 5 over-age outfielders and one over-age keeper

That’s good, bringing back a more reserve feel will help with keeping first team squad players fit but may hamper the younger ones development getting less game time! 
 

id personally use the overage lads until deadline day to keep them match fit ready to be sold.

wonder if someone at the club is superstitious, we never seem to issue a number 13?

They show a load of monks around and have flags all over the ground - but not for the away. 

 

I think they're fairly superstitious.

https://www.lcfc.com/news/2721495/squad-numbers-confirmed-for-202223-season

 

1. Danny Ward (GK)
2. James Justin
3. Wesley Fofana
4. Çağlar Söyüncü
5. Ryan Bertrand
6. Jonny Evans
7. Harvey Barnes
8. Youri Tielemans
9. Jamie Vardy
10. James Maddison
11. Marc Albrighton
14. Kelechi Iheanacho
17. Ayoze Pérez
18. Daniel Amartey
20. Patson Daka 
21. Ricardo Pereira
22. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall
23. Jannik Vestergaard
24. Nampalys Mendy
25. Wilfred Ndidi
26. Dennis Praet
27. Timothy Castagne
29. Hamza Choudhury
31. Daniel Iversen (GK)
33. Luke Thomas
41. Jakub Stolarczyk (GK)
42. Boubakary Soumaré

So if that’s everyone who is in contention, we have 27 players there. - Luke Thomas. - Ricardo and Bertrand who will possibly be out for six months and can be registered in Jan if required and back fit.

That would leave one free place in the squad for someone like Wright, unless he has a deal elsewhere lined up.

Barnes Keeping No. 7
