Barnes has switched from the No. 15 shirt to the No. 11 shirt following Matt Ritchie’s departure this summer while Murphy has switched from No. 54 to No. 37 as he looks to break into the first-team squad. New arrival Lloyd Kelly will wear the No. 25 shirt as he has in pre-season and John Ruddy had been handed the No. 26 shirt.
