Oleksandr Zinchenko has opted to change his shirt number at Arsenal from 35 to 17, a number that carries substantial personal meaning for him.
Zinchenko has shared that the number 17 is special to him because it was his number during his formative years as a footballer and has been the one he has consistently requested to wear for his national team. This change aligns with his desire to return to a number that has been significant throughout his career.
Zinchenko's previous shirt number at Arsenal, 35, was associated with his initial period at the club. The transition to number 17 was made possible after Cedric Soares, who previously wore that number, departed from Arsenal. This move has allowed Zinchenko to adopt a number that he feels a strong connection to, reflecting both his personal history and professional aspirations.
