Philadelphia Union fans fearing the potential for a lockout impacting the 2021 MLS season can breathe a huge sigh of relief.
A tentative agreement between the MLS Players Association and the league on a new collective bargaining agreement was reached Friday night with a vote by the players and the league’s board of governors still to come.
The terms were ironed out Friday after the previous Thursday deadline was extended another 24 hours.
Once ratified, the agreement will be effective through the 2027 season.
