Austin FC star Sebastian Driussi changes number for 2023 season

Sebastian Driussi goal celebration

The days of Sebastian Driussi sporting the No. 7 are gone.

Austin FCā€™s star playmaker has, rather fittingly, changed his jersey to No. 10 ahead of the 2023 MLS season.

Driussiā€™s swap comes on the heels of tallying 22 goals and seven assists in 34 regular-season games last year. He also provided three goals in three Audi 2022 MLS Cup Playoff matches as the Verde & Black made the Western Conference Final.

For his efforts, the 26-year-old finished second in Landon Donovan MLS MVP voting, placed on the MLS Best XI presented by Continental Tire and was an MLS All-Star.

The Argentine joins several compatriots ā€“ Minnesotaā€™s Emanuel Reynoso, Cincinnatiā€™s Luciano Acosta, Portland's Sebastian Blanco and Columbusā€™ Lucas Zelarayan ā€“ in wearing the No. 10 for MLS clubs.
