The Major League Soccer (MLS) often gets referred to as a 'retirement league' and it's not hard to see why. Big-name players, particularly from Europe, tend to move to MLS towards the end of their careers, often in their mid-thirties. This has caused a perception that the MLS is less competitive and a place for these players to wind down. However, this doesn't mean the quality of football is poor, it's just the league has become an attractive option for players in their twilight years. It's a trend that's likely to continue, but it's also helping grow the sport's popularity in the US.
