Manchester United Treble winner Andrew Cole hopes Mason Mount can handle the No7 shirt.

The arrival from Chelsea was granted the coveted number by manager Erik ten Hag.

“Fingers crossed he can have a good first season," Cole told manutd.com. “He had a tough end to his Chelsea career, really tough.

“Coming into Manchester United, I think he's put himself under a little bit of added pressure by taking the number seven shirt.

“But fair play to him, he obviously believes in himself, and I hope it works out for him."

Cole also said: “He [Ten Hag] sees something in him that he likes. He sees something that makes him think 'I can work with that'.

“I'm hoping Mount can bring a little something to Manchester United; more energy in the midfield area naturally because I think that's what his game is based on, getting around the football pitch and things like that."
