2026 MLS SuperDraft
The 2026 MLS SuperDraft was the 26th edition of the MLS SuperDraft, a sports draft to select amateur, usually collegiate, soccer players that are not affiliated with an MLS club, or college soccer players that had their homegrown player rights relinquished by their parent MLS club. The draft was held on December 18, 2025, marking the fourth year in a row that the draft was held in December. Despite the draft being held in 2025, the draft retained the 2026 branding.
Format
Historically, the MLS SuperDraft has closely resembled that of the NFL draft:- Any expansion teams receive the first picks. There are no expansion teams this year, so the last-place MLS team will receive the first pick
- 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.
