Richmond Boakye-Yiadom will wear the jersey No.38 for Chinese Super League side Jiangsu Suning in this his debut season.

Boakye completed a reported €4m-a-season deal from Red Star Belgrade last month.

The Chinese club have now confirmed the 25-year old will wear the No.38 shirt from this season onwards.

Boakye wore 18 in his Italy Serie A debut at Genoa and at Juventus but later wore 9 at Elche and Sassuolo, 11 (Roda JC), and the infamous 14 in his goal-laden one year stint at Red Star.
