The change has been made official through the registration of numbers to La Liga.
Marco Asensio will be Real Madrid’s new #11, the change will be made official once Gareth Bale’s departure to Tottenham Hotspur has been announced. Asensio’s kit change, has allowed Vinicius JR to request the vacant #20 shirt, a number he wore with Flamengo when first breaking through in professional football.
Some of the retuning loanee’s have also been given their new numbers. Martin Ødegaard will wear the #21, just like he did last season at Real Sociedad. The number became vacant with Brahim Diaz’s loan transfer to AC Milan. Borja Mayroal will take the #16, Alvaro Odriozola will re-take his previous kit number, #19.
Andriy Lunin and Rodyrgo Goes have been registered with both the first team and Castilla. Thus, it is required they have a kit number above #25. Rodyrgo will keep his #27 and Lunin has been given the #29 kit. Full squad list below:
