NewsRevealed: Wataru Endo's Liverpool squad number

The Japan captain on Friday became the Reds’ third new signing of the summer window, following fellow midfielders Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, when he completed a transfer from Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart.

And Endo has opted to take the No.3 jersey that was vacated by Fabinho last month.

He told Liverpoolfc.com: “Number three is my number because I played as No.3 in Stuttgart and when I was playing in Japan, also. I love this number! I cannot wait to play with this number here.”
