Unless you’ve been under a rock, you are fully aware that Major League Soccer is expanding at a ridiculous rate. In 1996 there were 10 teams. Up to 2006 they had only grown to 12 teams. When the league kicks off in March of 2019 there will be 24 teams. And there are still teams coming to Miami, Nashville and Austin in the next couple of seasons.
MLS Commissioner, Don Garber, has long said the league will grow to 28 teams. I’m not sure anyone believes they are stopping at that point. One person who definitely doesn’t believe that is Sporting Kansas City head coach and sporting director Peter Vermes.
