It is the dawn of a new Premier League season on the horizon, and Manchester United looks to be well prepared for what promises to be a very exciting season ahead.

The Red Devils will kick off their 2020/2021 Premier League campaign with an encounter against their old rivals Leeds United at Old Trafford, and the Theatre of Dreams seems to have a new look front for the season as well.

The stadium that has hosted some of the best players in the world over the years will now host one of their newest and most exciting acquisitions in the form of young English forward Jadon Sancho.

Sancho’s face in the traditional red jersey of Manchester United adorned the front wall of Old Trafford in new pictures of the stadium that surfaced online just ahead of the upcoming season.

The Borussia Dortmund forward who made a £73m move to Old Trafford this summer is likely to be one of the Red Devils’ most integral players as they will look to reclaim the Premier League title after a span of eight years, and his partnership with Bruno Fernandes – the man who accompanies him in the front wall – will be crucial to United’s league title hopes.

The newly plastered graphic also features players such as Marcus Rashford, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and other members of the squad, and adorns the message “Here We Belong”.

It’s a fresh and new look United squad that will look to surprise a few people and get the Premier League title back to the Theatre of Dreams once again, as the Red Devils will usher in a new era when the crowd enters through the front gates of the legendary venue for the first time in well over a year.
