Martinez officially completed his transfer to Manchester United on Wednesday, putting pen to paper on a five-year deal.

The 24-year-old is now the eighth player to wear the number six (6) shirt since squad numbers were introduced in 1993/94.

With the Argentine now the owner of the number 6, he takes over from former midfielder, Paul Pogba.

Pogba, for the second time, left United on free to join Juventus after five years at the club.

Upon his signing, Pogba was handed the number 6 when he joined from Juventus in the summer of 2016, becoming the seventh player to wear the number. 

Manchester United fans will be hoping that Martinez will have a better United career than the Frenchman whose time at Old Trafford continues to divide the entire fan base and football world.

United fans could see Martinez in action for the first time with his new number this weekend when United take on Atletico Madrid on Saturday and Rayo Vallecano 24 hours later.
