The shirt numbers Bondo, Sottil and Joao Felix will wear at AC Milan

The AC Milan management were incredibly active on deadline day as they ended up securing three new signings to bolster the squad.

The best way to relive the drama of deadline day is to look back through our live blog which shows how the negotiations developed throughout the day before eventually reaching a positive conclusion.

Joao Felix, Warren Bondo and Riccardo Sottil are the three players who joined, from Chelsea, Monza and Fiorentina respectively. All three signed their contracts at Casa Milan last night, and are doing their medical now.

On the club’s official website, it has been confirmed that Bondo will wear the number 38 shirt at Milan, while Sottil has taken the No.99. Meanwhile, Matteo Moretto is reporting that Joao Felix will wear the 79 shirt.

We must of course wait for the official announcement regarding the Portuguese which has not yet arrived, but if he does take No.79 then he will be following on from Franck Kessie, while also wearing the number that he did with Benfica.
