When a Major League Soccer team constructs its roster, the most prestigious spots are often Designated Players. This roster-building mechanism allows them to acquire and retain world-class talent, resulting in many of MLS's biggest stars.
Clubs can sign up to three DPs whose compensation and acquisition costs exceed the Maximum Salary Budget Charge. Additionally, clubs bear financial responsibility for any compensation above each player's Salary Budget Charge (outside the Salary Cap).
For more details, check out the Spring 2025 Roster Profiles and the league's Roster Rules.
