Interesting data from the Daily Mail earlier this week in which they showed the top three shirts at each Premier League club.
The list contains a lot of the Premier League’s biggest names, but one name that jumps out is Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke. Villa signed Benteke from Genk this summer for around around £7 million.
Villa fans have taken to Benteke and the club told the Daily Mail that an astonishing 70% of shirts sold at their official Villa Stores have ‘Benteke 20’ on the back.
