Clint Dempsey has left the building.
On Wednesday, the man known as ‘Deuce’ decided to hang up his boots ending one of the most storied careers in American and Major League Soccer history. There is a recycled phrase in sports journalism that seems apt here: ‘The numbers speak for themself.’ While that may be true it is the moments that truly made his career worth remembering.
This week we asked our Prost Soccer photographers to go through their archives to pull out some of their favorite photos of Dempsey. We want to thank Corbin Elliott, Kari Heistad, Don MacGregor, Richard Morrison, and Lyndsay Radnedge for their assistance on this project.
