List of current Major League Soccer broadcasters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a list of current Major League Soccer broadcasters for each individual team.
International video broadcasters
2023–2032
Apple Inc. has exclusive global rights to every MLS match and Leagues Cup match, with commentary in English and Spanish on MLS Season Pass. All match broadcasts are produced by MLS Productions, a partnership of Major League Soccer, IMG and NEP Group.[1][2][3][4] MLS generally assigns announcers regionally, reportedly to retain local familiarity among fans but largely suspected to be to save money on production costs.[5]
All commentary was on-site in 2023, allaying concerns about remote broadcasts,[6] as well as in 2024.[7] During the 2025 season, MLS began assigning commentators in both English and Spanish to work "off tube" (remotely) from NEP Vista Worldlink in Dania Beach, Florida, USA.
In addition, MLS Productions produces whip-around, pre-match and post-match studio shows from WWE Studio in Stamford, Connecticut. There is a pre-match show, MLS Countdown, which airs 30 (Eastern) or 15 (Central/Mountain/Pacific) minutes before games, which in most cases will be 7:30 p.m. local time. The national post-match show, MLS Wrap-Up, airs at 12:30 a.m. Eastern time. The whip-around show is called MLS 360 and will cut into matches of significance.[8]
All matches involving CF Montréal, Toronto FC, and Vancouver Whitecaps FC had French-language commentary in 2023. Montréal has been the sole French-language broadcast for Apple since 2024.[7]
Beginning in 2026 season, the MLS Season Pass subscription will be discontinued and all MLS content will be integrated into Apple TV service.[9] After making cuts to Spanish-language coverage and moving some off-site production to the UK, MLS has recommitted to having all commentators on-site in 2026 and beyond.[10]
