Steven Gerrard and Luis Suarez are among the top five most popular Barclays Premier League players when it comes to shirt sales.
Gerrard has moved up from third to second in the 2012-13 list of personalized shirt sales behind Manchester United striker Robin van Persie, while Suarez comes in fifth.
Here is the top 10:
