Squad number history
Numbers worn — longest first
Why #39?Guimarães wears 39 for his father's taxi. His father drove one in Brazil for over twenty years, and suggested the number when Bruno signed his first professional contract — the taxi, as Bruno puts it, gave the family everything they had. He has it tattooed, and has worn it at every club since.Source: arsenal.com
