#3 Gianluca Busio – $7.2 M –  Average Points: 4.67

Gianluca Busio is coming off a week where he earned seven MLS fantasy points, despite not earning a goal or an assist.

The 18-year-old is nearly guaranteed to play the full 90 minutes and is on the ball for most corners and free kicks. Sporting KC has lined up with multiple lineups this season. However, with the recent injury to Johnny Russell, Busio becomes the midfield leader and starts in the number 10 position.

Sporting will be on the road against the San Jose Earthquakes this weekend. The Earthquakes have lost their previous two home games and have allowed at least one goal in every match this season.

Busio is currently only owned by 5.73% of all MLS fantasy managers.
