Final Thoughts

Looking back at the success of these clubs one can see the difference in the opening years of the league compared to the present. In the early years, the league struggled to attract fan bases and unfortunately, there have been clubs lost over the years as a result. However a resurgence in those areas will see soccer make a return soon to places like Miami.

The players and clubs involved in this league have made history as a whole. Taking a league from relative obscurity to a league watched all over the world. Their commitment to the successes of the franchises is what keeps this league going. Hopefully, we continue to see top players joining the league as well as talented homegrown players being developed.

With that being said, it’s an exciting time to be a fan of MLS, with the league adding top talent every year and more clubs on the way the league could take off into something really special. It still has a long way to go, but it could very well turn into a top league one day with the right ownership and resources behind it.
