MLS has potential but structure isn't good, says former USMNT striker Boyd

Former U.S. national team striker Terrence Boyd has hit out at Major League Soccer's structure, saying the way the league is set up will continue to hold it back.

Boyd spent a brief period in MLS, playing with Toronto FC for the first half of the 2019 season before moving on to German third-division outfit Hallescher FC.

The 29-year-old believes that the North American top-flight is being hampered by a number of issues, among them a lack of promotion and relegation.
