The center forward will not wear the characteristic '9' that has accompanied him for so many years, but he will wear the '99' on his back. According to the blue and white team, this was a decision made by Guerrero himself due to the team's 99 years of institutional life.
"Referring to the 99th anniversary of the Lion, Paolo Guerrero chose the number 99 jersey!", they published.

Although the number is peculiar, Paolo will not be the first to wear that number, since world stars like Ronaldo Nazário also wore that curious number in AC Milan. More recently, Gianluigi Donnarumma did the same when he was wearing the red and black jersey, and not to mention that Andy Polo currently wears that number.
