Soccer’s Future in America Hangs in the Balance as Kewsong Lee Steps into USL Power Seat
For the cost of one MLS team, you could own 20+ USL League One clubs with a chance to rise in cities that have been denied a slice of the pie, but pretty soon, they could have a chance to play in a top-flight soccer league.
Earlier this year, the USL announced it is planning to launch a new US men’s league with first-division sanctioning to be granted by US Soccer – the second league in the country to receive this status after MLS.
Tentatively named the USL Division One, this top-flight league is set to launch in 2028. Not only will they launch a new top-flight league, but they’ll also become the first sports league in the US to institute promotion and relegation between its men’s divisions.
