Could the MLS become the Biggest Soccer League in the World?
I think the North American soccer league known as the MLS could be the
biggest soccer league in the world, within decades.
It could become bigger than the major European leagues such as the Scottish,
Italian, Dutch, English, Polish, Belgian, Romanian, Ukrainian, Russian, French,
German, Spanish, Swiss, Portuguese, and Greek leagues.
The USA has the largest population of the Western developed nations.
Added to that the Canadian teams enter the MLS. So the USA
and Canada is a massive wealthy developed soccer market.
I think soccer is growing in the USA, and Canada. I think
one day the American sides will be the biggest on the planet. Bigger than the
likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona.
I think the immigrant populations coming to America, are
more likely to follow soccer. So these new demographics will progress soccer
into becoming the biggest North American sport.
I would love Scottish sides to play big North American sides
in competitive trophies.
Perhaps there could be a British – North America Soccer
trophy?
That way the biggest teams from Scotland like Glasgow
Celtic, Glasgow Rangers and Aberdeen could play top MLS sides.
Maybe the top MLS sides could be invited into the UEFA
Champions League, Europa League or
Europa Conference League?
The USA has massive cities like New York, Los Angeles,
Chicago, and Dallas.
At present the USA has big basketball, baseball, American football,
and ice hockey sides.
I hope that Americans support their own sides and develop
their own league into being a super league of the World.
But I also hope the MLS continues to respect international
soccer.
So international soccer is still the priority of soccer.
Imagine a huge new league with massive stadiums ion huge
cities in developed nations.
The MLS is that league.
At present the system has ;
The Western Conference.
Austin, Colorado Rapids, Dallas, Houston Dynamo, LA Galaxy,
Los Angeles, Minnesota United, Portland Timbers, Real Salt Lake, San Jose
Earthquakes, Seattle Sounders, Sporting Kansas City, Vancouver Whitecaps.
The Eastern Conference .
Atlanta United, Chicago Fire, Cincinnati, Columbus Crew SC, D.C. United,
Inter Miami CF, CF Montréal, Nashville SC, New England Revolution, New York
City, New York Red Bulls, Orlando City SC, Philadelphia Union, Toronto
Other teams could include;
Charlotte FC, Sacramento Republic, St. Louis City SC.
