Everton confirm 2019-20 official squad numbers

Everton have announced the official squad number list for the upcoming season before the Blues’ first Premier League game of the 2019-20 season at Crystal Palace tomorrow.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been handed the iconic #9 striker’s jersey, while Richarlison moves to #7 and Michael Keane from #4 to #5.

There are a number of other changes, starting with André Gomes reverting back to his favoured #21, leaving the #8 for new signing Fabian Delph to take over.

Alex Iwobi, meanwhile, has been given #17, the same number he wore most recently at former club Arsenal.

Fellow summer addition Jonas Lössl takes the #49, which is the first time that has been worn in Everton colours. As already announced, Jean-Philippe Gbamin will wear the vacant #25 and Moise Kean has #27.

Djibril Sidibé takes the #19 shirt from Oumar Niasse, who is now #29.

Niasse is one of four players to be given new numbers which suggest they are all not part of manager Marco Silva’s plans, including Kevin Mirallas (#28), Cuco Martina (#30) and Yannick Bolasie (#31).
