I'm surprised so many thought the announcement would have been yesterday. Yesterday was kit reveal day. Announcing Sancho would have instantly overshadowed it.

Will be today at some point.

Isn’t there some fecking lame PL rule about squad numbers and how you can’t just have any number you want and it has to be within 5 numbers of the current highest squad number?

I‘m pretty sure something like that happened when Renato Sanches joined Swansea on loan and he wanted some high squad number, but wasnt allowed it because of this painfully stupid rule.
‘First team’ players have to wear a number between 1 and 40, and only one above that if they’re all taken

Whoever editing the launch video must be sweating reading the Caf.

Give him some space!

Announcement delayed.

They are waiting to wrap up the Varane deal so they can have the double unveiling.

Hearing that the Sancho unveiling will be a video of him coming out to Old Trafford wearing a Alexis Sanchez mask/kit, ripping it off and bursting into songs by the Backstreet Boys. Make of that what you will.

They really are longing this out as much as possible aren't they, just one big troll at this point. There probably won't even be an announcement, he'll just be on the team sheet one day
