Christian Fuchs Second Most Popular Jersey

Christian Fuchs Jersey

When your last name is FUCHS, you’re going to sell a lot of soccer jerseys. As in the second most MLS jerseys after Gareth Bale. And just ahead of Carlos Vela. It’s not like Christian Fuchs is a goal scorer or something. He plays left back! I wouldn’t say he plays the game with some unique flair that would inspires others to want his jersey.

I mean I know Charolette FC has a big and growing soccer fandom, but Fuchs as the second most popular jerseys in the MLS, there has to be something else going on. Surely it’s the similar FUCHS has to a four letter word that’s often evoked when one misses a wide open shot or an attacker goes past them.

Fuchs did win an English Premier League title with Leicester City! Are a bunch of Leicester fans buying his jersey…

This via Wikipedia – this might explain his jersey popularity some more as well:

He is noted for his online video series “No Fuchs Given”, a play on his surname and the English-language obscenity “f*ck”; the series consists of himself and teammates doing unusual football-related challenges, such as him and Robert Huth shooting the ball as hard as possible at each other’s backsides.[4] He also has a stated dream to become an NFL placekicker and has demonstrated his skills on the BBC’s NFL coverage.[26] His surname “Fuchs” is the German word for “Fox”.

I wonder just how many Christian Fuchs jerseys were sold?

Premier League Champion Christian Fuchs tried his hand at Charlotte FC office life by slinging some tickets. Fuchs does seem to have a funny or at fun personality so maybe that’s also why they’re selling a lot of Fuchs jerseys.
