Tottenham have finally confirmed their full list of shirt numbers for the 2022/23 campaign on the eve of the brand new Premier League season. Announcing numbers for new signings ahead of the pre-season tour of South Korea and then prior to the Rangers friendly, the club reiterated that a full finalised list would be confirmed once they had submitted their final squad list to the Premier League prior to the opening weekend of the 2022/23 season.
Tottenham had announced shirt numbers for five of the club's six summer signings, with Yves Bissouma down to wear No.38 in pre-season before his squad number was officially confirmed. Well, the ex-Brighton & Hove Albion man will stick with the No.38 for Spurs following his move from the south coast club, with Harry Winks still occupying the No.8 shirt Bissouma wore at his former club.
As previously announced, Richarlison is the club's new No.9 after joining from Everton, Fraser Forster will wear No.20, Djed Spence No.24 and Clement Lenglet No.34. Ivan Perisic was initially down to wear No.22 for the Lilywhites in pre-season but in the end inherited his favourite No.14 jersey from Joe Rodon ahead of the Rangers encounter.

football.london understands that the Croat personally phoned the Welshman to request the shirt number which he has worn throughout his career, something the centre-back, who is now on loan at Rennes, was more than happy to do for the new man.
Oliver Skipp is Tottenham's new No.4 for the 2022/23 campaign having taken on the shirt following Cristian Romero's decision to switch to No.17. Pape Matar Sarr, who has returned to Spurs this summer after his season-loan loan spell with Metz, will subsequently wear Skipp's old No.29 top following the switch.
Sergio Reguilon, Harry Winks, Giovani Lo Celso and Tanguy Ndombele are not part of Antonio Conte's plans for the new campaign having missed out on selection for their four friendlies However the quartet have all kept their shirt numbers for the upcoming campaign, whilst Harvey White will wear the No.42.
