2024 MLS SuperDraft Results
The 2024 MLS SuperDraft generated significant anticipation and excitement among U.S. soccer enthusiasts and club supporters.
This year’s draft welcomed younger players based on the new age restrictions. Collegiate sophomores, juniors, and Generation adidas signees qualified as potential draft picks. Players who have been drafted and still maintain their college eligibility have the option to return to school for additional development, but they will forfeit their eligibility for future drafts. Additionally, the club that made the selection retains SuperDraft Priority for approximately two years if the chosen player decides to return to college or remains unsigned.
With more colleges investing time into recruiting top talent, there was an abundant amount of players in the draft pool.
