Below are just the 3 possible shirt numbers the Frenchman could go after once after his medical;

No.12.

The vacant No.12 shirt, worn by Chris Smalling before his move to AS Roma will be really easy for Varane to obtain. In the past, it was worn by the likes of Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, and Phil Neville.

No.16

The number remains available following Marcos Rojo’s move to Argentina in January 2021. Varane might be prompted to choose the shirt because club legends Roy Keane and Michael Carrick wore it in the past.

That’s the most likely and the available shirt numbers at United for Varane at the moment. Obviously, the France international would like to go for no.4 as it is his favorite jersey worn at his national team side. But it’s left to see if Jones would exit the club this summer.
