A walkout that was averted five years ago might not be avoidable avoid this time, with pay, free agency and travel the major issues.
LAFC coach Bob Bradley believes the team’s resilient effort, led by Adama Diomande, bodes well, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s MLS career seems like it’s ending.
Free agency is perhaps the biggest issue that was left unsettled in the last negotiations. Due to MLS having a single-entity structure in which the players and teams are owned by the league and managed by investor-operators, the league would essentially be bidding against itself for players if free agency worked in soccer the way it does in every other major U.S. professional league.
“Guys want to be able to choose where they work and where they live,” Foose said. “We want to see substantial changes on that front.”Spending and roster construction are also front-burner issues for the union. MLS has among the most complex and opaque financial rules of any major league, limiting what teams can spend on players while also providing exceptions. For example, teams can go beyond the salary cap — currently $4.
