The club have announced the list of new squad numbers for next season.
Biggest surprise is that Paul Kitson has had the no.9 shirt taken from him - it will now be worn by new signing Davor Suker. Kitson will wear the number 12 vacated by Paulo Wanchope.Neil Ruddock's departure means that Bobby Moore's number 6 shirt remains vacant, although new signing Hayden Foxe is yet to be given a number due to the problems with his work permit.
Nigel Winterburn is given the previously vacant number 17, whilst Freddy Kanoute gets 14. The rest remain unchanged.
