Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed that he will wear the No 10 shirt for Manchester United ahead of his return to Old Trafford.

Ibrahimovic assembled 10 United shirts with his name and number on the back before posting an image on Twitter on Thursday.

'I never left, I just upgraded my number,' Ibrahimovic wrote, who last season wore the No 9 shirt which is now occupied by Romelu Lukaku.

The 35-year-old, who is expected back in December, signed a new one-year deal in August following a fine debut season in England where he scored 28 goals in 46 games. 

The former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain man has been rewarded with a new contract despite originally being released after missing the final month of the campaign due to a cruciate knee injury. 

Ibrahimovic has been named in the squad for United's return to the Champions League.

Lukaku, who has become United's main striker, said recently Ibrahimovic was still beneficial to have in the side.

'I already knew for a while that Zlatan would sign but I didn't tell anyone,' Lukaku revealed to reporters earlier this month.

'I'm happy. We need his personality. I think Zlatan will bring us a lot. I think he has one mission, and that is to win the Premier League, and we're going to help him reach his goal,' Lukaku added.
