Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber has said that the league would like to have Mexican players like Giovani dos Santos.
"I don't think any player has told the story as well and as importantly for us as Giovani [dos Santos]," said Garber on Wednesday. "He's at the prime of his career, 26-27 years old ... I got a text this morning [saying] that the ESPN SportsCenter Play of the Day was Giovani's goal against New England."
Garber's praise for Dos Santos -- who has netted five goals in his last five games for the Galaxy -- led to an open plea for more Mexicans in MLS, due to their strategic importance for the league moving forward, especially among Hispanic fans.
