Barcelona keep the No.7 shirt free... for Griezmann?
Coutinho given the No.14 instead
Posted Thursday, January 25, 2018 by Marca.com
It has been confirmed this Wednesday that Philippe Coutinho will inherit the No.14 from the departing Javier Mascherano, meaning that Barcelona's No.7 shirt remains free.
Previously worn by Arda Turan, who left for Basaksehir earlier in the January window, the No.7 jersey might soon belong to Antoine Griezmann, if Barcelona manage to sign the Frenchman in the summer.
Griezmann has worn the No.7 at Real Sociedad, at Atletico Madrid and with France, so some believe their decision to keep it free has something to do with a summer push for the 26-year-old.
However, as MARCA reported last weekend, the player isn't yet sure what he wants to do.
