Major League Soccer players are featuring special World Cup-inspired designs on their jerseys during matches on May 23 and 24. The numbers on the backs incorporate the flags of all 48 nations competing in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, set within black or white outlines depending on the base jersey color.
Each player will also wear a flag patch on the front of the jersey representing their declared nationality or citizenship. The customized kits form part of a Send-Off weekend ahead of the MLS break, with the special editions set for a league-wide auction afterward. The World Cup begins on June 11, and the 2025 MLS regular season resumes on July 16.
