Dom Dwyer and Graham Zusi among best-selling jerseys in MLS

Graham Zusi and Dom Dwyer jersey announcement - July 15, 2016

Sporting Kansas City's Dom Dwyer and Graham Zusi made the list of the 20 best-selling adidas MLS jerseys halfway through the 2016 season.


Dwyer currently ranks No. 10, up four spots from last year, and Zusi comes in at No. 15. New York City FC midfielder Andrea Pirlo leads the list, while Clint Dempsey falls to No. 2 after holding the top spot for each of the previous two seasons.



Now in his fifth MLS campaign, Dwyer is on pace to crack the top 10 for the first time in his career. The English striker leads Sporting Kansas City with eight goals in 2016, becoming the second-leading scorer in club history, while also adding two assists.


Zusi, who finished among the top 15 best-selling jerseys in 2014 and 2015, has a goal and three assists this season for Sporting Kansas City. The four-time MLS All-Star featured prominently for the U.S. Men's National Team at Copa America Centenario, making five appearances in the tournament and netting his fifth career international goal. He is one of six players on the top-20 list to have represented the United States since last summer's CONCACAF Gold Cup.


Joining Pirlo and Dempsey in the top five are current MLS Golden Boot leader David Villa, Seattle rookie forward Jordan Morris and LA Galaxy midfielder Steven Gerrard.
