Perhaps because is about soccer? Other Shounen Spocon are about more popular sports for Americans.
Captain Tsubasa is very popular in Latin America. Could that be the reason?

Maybe because it wasn't aired in USA but it has many fans when it comes to Spanish speaking countries probably because the anime's first adaptation was released on those countries and had a chance to gain lots of fans.

Unfortunately nowadays only things that keep Captain Tsubasa alive except those fans who followed it since the first adaptation are two video games Rise of new champions for PS4 and the mobile game Dream team but suprisingly those two games made some people from the west realise that this series actually exist.

I grew up along with the story in my childhood, not only i loved the show but almost all the boys at the beginning of the century in Brazil did as well.
Although the new adaptation wasn't bad, I feel that it didn't add anything to the original work, besides not adapting the part of their professional career, which was the most remarkable for us, so I believe that’s why the remake was not popular, at least around here.

this show is also popular in IRAN.
I think there is two reason:
1. it aired on iranian TV
2. iranian people love football(🇬🇧>>>🇺🇸)
