EPL: Man Utd hands Sancho's shirt number to new signing

With Jadon Sancho almost certain to sign for Chelsea permanently, Manchester United have handed his no.25 shirt to Manuel Ugarte.

Ugarte was officially unveiled by the Red Devils on Sunday.

The Uruguay midfielder signed for United from Paris Saint-Germain in a deal worth £51million.

Ugarte said: "The project here is extremely exciting.

"This is an ambitious club, I'm an ambitious player.

"I will sacrifice and give everything for my teammates. Together, we'll fight to win trophies and reach the level where Utd deserve to be."

Sancho has moved to Chelsea for an initial one-season loan but the Blues have an obligation to sign him for a fee of around £25 million
