Major League Soccer has issued an ultimatum to MLS players that could see them locked out as early as Tuesday, according to ESPN.

On Sunday, the MLS Player Association voted to approve their latest counteroffer to MLS in negotiations over economic concessions for the 2020 season, modifications to the CBA, and their agreement to play in the summer tournament that the league is hoping to stage in Orlando.
