Official: Vinicius will wear the No. 7 shirt at Real Madrid, and Rodrygo gets the No. 11

According to the official squad list page for the 2023/24 season on the club’s website, Real Madrid Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo Goes are set for upgrades in their kit numbers for the upcoming campaign.
Vinicius Jr, who has worn the No. 20 kit since the 2020/21 season, is now all set to be handed the No. 7 shirt from the upcoming campaign.
Following the departure of Eden Hazard, the iconic #7 kit has become vacant and it was speculated that the jersey might be reserved for new signing Jude Bellingham.

After Ronaldo's departure from Juventus in the summer of 2018, the legendary shirt moved to Mariano Diaz (2018-2019) and then to Hazard between 2019 and 2023.
The number 7 is one of the best numbers for Real Madrid, as it was worn by Raul Gonzalez before it was worn by the historic scorer of the royals, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Vinicius Junior is one of the most important Real Madrid players at the moment.
