Whitecaps FC sporting director Axel Schuster was joined by players Bryan Meredith, Jake Nerwinski, and Andy Rose on Wednesday afternoon to address the media via video conference, tackling a number of topics that have been on the forefront of the news in recent days.

CBA RATIFICATION

The media availability came on the heels of the announcement that MLS and MLS Players Association approved a new collective bargaining agreement. The agreement will run through 2025 and outlines a resumption of the 2020 season with an Orlando-based tournament.

“We are all happy that we finally found this agreement and I have to thank all the parties that they made it happen in the end,” Schuster said.
