The offseason is about to get rolling in a big way next week once MLS Cup wraps up in Columbus tomorrow. Up first will be a period of time on Monday where teams can make trades and get things set before Tuesday’s Expansion Draft with newcomers Austin FC.
Austin FC will be able to select five players from 16 MLS clubs (the other ten are exempt due to losing a player in last year’s Expansion Draft with Inter Miami and Nashville SC). FC Dallas will have to protect 12 players from their senior, supplemental, and reserve rosters.
