According to Major League Soccer Vice President Charles Altchek, Liga MX President Enrique Bonilla met with MLS officials today to discuss ending the current system of promotion and relegation in Mexico. Altchek told a group gathered at the Philadelphia Union’s Academy campus in Wayne, Pennsylvania that this discussion would be held today in the MLS offices in New York City. Altchek and MLS Commissioner Don Garber were visiting the suburban Philadelphia campus to discuss the Union’s youth academy and made the remark to the gathered journalists and academy members.
Garber was talking about promotion and relegation in Major League Soccer, and how the idea “just doesn’t work” in the context of MLS.
