Shohei Otani (29, LA Dodgers), who signed a contract worth $700 million (approximately 924 billion won), the highest ever in North American professional sports history, is also recording the 'highest ever' in uniform sales. It is a new record that surpasses soccer stars Lionel Messi (Inter Miami) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nasr).

On the 14th (hereinafter Korean time), the official SNS of the U.S. Major League Baseball said, “Ohtani’s Dodgers uniform broke the sales record within the first 48 hours after its release,” adding, “It surpassed the sales of uniforms by Messi and Ronaldo.”

Dodgers uniforms with Ohtani's number 17 engraved on them have been sold at Fanatics since the 12th. As soon as sales began, it gained great popularity and was sold all over the world, even surpassing the sales records of Messi and Ronaldo, who are considered the best soccer stars of all time.

Fanatics is a company that mainly produces American professional sports uniforms. Messi's uniform, which previously held the sales record, was released when he was a member of Major League Soccer (MLS) Inter Miami.

There is a significant difference in the status of Major League Baseball and professional soccer in the United States. Nevertheless, Messi has been ranked first, beating many star players, and Ohtani is breaking this record again, showing his popularity.

Ohtani ranked first in uniform sales in the entire major league last September.

As a superstar who doubles as a pitcher, he was already enjoying the greatest popularity in the major leagues, but his popularity and interest seem to have increased even more as he recently signed a free agent contract worth an astronomical amount of money and moved to the 'national team' Dodgers. 카지노사이트
