Why are Argentine players increasingly choosing to play in MLS?
More and more Argentines are deciding to continue their soccer careers in the MLS, leaving aside other leagues of America, as Mexico
There may be many reasons why the record of Argentines playing in the MLS has been broken, but surely it is not only the economic part. In recent years, it has been possible to see how MLS can serve as a step to reach a big league in Europe, especially in the young promises.
The way the MLS teams play is good for Argentines, who are looking for a fast, dynamic and attractive game. That is why most of the players who arrive as promises do their job well. This possibility of shining in their teams, as the case of Pavon in LA Galaxy, opens the doors to both their selected teams and European teams.
Playing alongside great figures, such as Ibrahimovic in his time, is also a factor that tempts the Argentinean players to go to MLS, since visibility in the media may be greater than the one of a team from Argentina. Always playing next to a legendary player helps to be seen by European teams.
Last but not least, the economic part also plays a very important role. It is known that the MLS pays good salaries and in dollars, a factor that tempts the Argentinean a lot. As Argentine soccer is not currently being played, they also decide to leave to have continuity and not lose the possibility of showing themselves to the world of soccer.
