The 2020 MLS SuperDraft will be the twenty-first SuperDraft conducted by Major League Soccer. The 2020 SuperDraft will be the first SuperDraft held exclusively via conference call and web streaming. The first two rounds of the 2020 SuperDraft will be held on January 9, 2020. Rounds three and four will be held on January 13, 2020. Previously, the SuperDraft had been held in conjunction with the annual January United Soccer Coaches convention. The SuperDraft format has remained constant throughout its history and closely resembles that of the NFL Draft: Inter Miami CF will select first, and Nashville SC will select second. Non-playoff clubs receive the next picks in reverse order of prior season finish. Teams that made the MLS Cup Playoffs are then ordered by which round of the playoffs they are eliminated. The winners of the MLS Cup are given the last selection, and the losers the penultimate selection.

Our inaugural @MLS roster is taking shape, and our players have a pretty lengthy resume. Take a look at the numbers behind the squad that will take the pitch in Nashville starting in February.
The transfer windows are the periods in which MLS teams can officially register any new players who were previously under contract with clubs based outside MLS and for which an International Transfer Certificate (ITC) is required. While deals may be agreed upon outside these windows, the transfer and receipt of an ITC are required in order to officially add a player to a roster, thus allowing him to be eligible for official competitions. All in-season trades between MLS clubs must take place within these transfer windows. The 2020 dates are roughly in line with the same windows in 2019 (Feb. 13-May 7 / July 9-Aug. 7) and 2018 (Feb. 7-May 1 / July 10-Aug. 8). Primary Transfer Window: Wed., February 12 – Tues., May 5, 2020 Secondary Transfer Window: Tues., July 7 – Wed., Aug. 5, 2020 https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2019...referral&utm_content=news&utm_campaign=unpaid
