MLS Proposes Summer Tournament In Florida Featuring All 26 Teams 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu May 14, 2020 1:09 am

The MLS is proposing a summer tournament in Florida featuring all 26 teams beginning in June.

The proposal calls for players and coaches to head to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando to begin training on June 1 with matches beginning three to four weeks later.

One proposed format for the tournament would see the league\'s teams divided into groups, with each team playing around five games during the group stage.

MLS shut down on March 12nd.

it would be great if they play some games around the state. there is a brand new stadium about a mile from my house here in Ft. Lauderdale that has yet to host the 1st Miami FC home game. even w/o fans it would be a nice gesture by the league to at least 'break in' the stadium.
