Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas has expressed confidence that Major League Soccer (MLS) will soon adopt a calendar aligned with international soccer standards. This potential shift in scheduling would allow the league to better accommodate international competitions, such’t as the FIFA World Cup and continental championships, which are held during the same period as the MLS season.
Such an adjustment would not only enhance the league’s global visibility but also make it more attractive to top international players. Mas emphasized that the change could help MLS compete more effectively with European leagues, which have long been the standard for high-level soccer. The move is seen as part of a broader effort to modernize and expand the league’s reach.
While the exact timeline for the calendar shift remains uncertain, Mas’s statements suggest that the MLS is moving closer to aligning its schedule with the international soccer calendar. This potential change has sparked discussions among fans, analysts, and stakeholders about the future of American soccer and its ability to rival the established competitions in Europe.
