Manchester United youngster Alejandro Garnacho has surprised fans with a weird snapshot from his birthday celebrations.
On social media, pictures of the Argentine forward, who turned 19 on Saturday, showed him having a good time. One shot in particular attracted the attention of football fans, as he posed with an Argentina-themed football cake.
Holding the cake in front of the youngster, was what some on social media dubbed as ‘Mini Messi and Ronaldo’.
The pair were dressed in Argentina and Portugal kits respectively, though the ‘Mini Messi’ had other fans suggesting he was actually at the party dressed as Garnacho’s club and country team mate Lisandro Martinez.
United fans though spotted another feature from the photo which they believe is hinting at what shirt number he will wear next season.
Garnacho, who wore the No 49 last season, had the No 19 at the top of his cake to mark his birthday, but it also had the No 7 on it.

The youngster also hit seven million followers on Instagram on Sunday, marking the occasion with a photo which shows the No 7 on his back.
The shirt number has remained vacant since Cristiano Ronaldo’s tumultuous exit from the club last year.
Garnacho enjoyed an impressive breakthrough season for the Reds Devils in the most recent campaign.
He made 34 appearances across all competitions and netted five goals.
The youngster will be hoping to take his game to another level, when United get their season underway next month.
