There are nearly 300 American players on Major League Soccer rosters in 2019. Among them exists a blend of high-priced Designated Players (Jozy Altidore, Michael Bradley, Alejandro Bedoya, Gyasi Zardes, etc.), established veterans (CJ Sapong, Lee Nguyen, Jordan Morris, etc.) and up-and-coming youngsters (Jeremy Ebobisse, Jonathan Lewis, etc.).
None of them scored as many as 36-year-old Chris Wondolowski.
Wondolowski not only led the Earthquakes in scoring for the ninth time in the last 10 years, but he outscored every other player born in the United States and Canada. In fact, only LAFC’s Carlos Vela scored more among players from the 23 countries that make up North America.
