Combined USA, Canada and Mexico league proposed after 2026 World Cup

Mexican Football Federation (FMF) president Enrique Bonilla has proposed a combined league of the best United States, Canada and Mexico teams after the 2026 World Cup.

The three countries will host the event after beating out Morocco with their joint bid earlier in the year.

It will be the first time the World Cup splits hosting duties across three nations, as well as the first tournament to feature 48 teams.

Mexico remains North America's biggest football market, with television viewing figures in the US beating even MLS.

And Bonilla sees their historic cooperation as a trend that should be extended once the World Cup comes to an end.
