Report: MLS Proposes Resuming Season in Orlando This Summer

MLS is exploring options for potentially resuming its season amid the coronavirus pandemic and has proposed bringing all 26 teams to Orlando to play at Disney's sports complex, according to The Washington Post's Steven Goff.

Under the proposal, players, coaches and additional staff would live under quarantine at a resort near Disney World and play primarily at ESPN Wide World of Sports, which sits on Disney's land. MLS would hold workouts and multiple matches per day at the site and stream games on ESPN's platforms, reports Goff.

Florida started reopening some nonessential businesses last week, although venues like ESPN Wide World of Sports remain closed.
