American soccer clubs in international competitions

Last updated

This is a list of American soccer clubs in international competitions. American clubs have participated in competitive international soccer competitions since 1963, when New York Hungaria entered the 1963 CONCACAF Champions' Cup.

Contents

Unlike other major professional sports leagues in the United States, the winners of Major League Soccer and National Women's Soccer League are not universally considered to be world champions in their respective sport. Yearly, MLS and NWSL teams will compete against other soccer clubs abroad in competitions to determine the champions of North America, the Americas, and the world.

Since 1963, American men's soccer clubs have won three CONCACAF Champions' Cup/Champions League titles, and finished runners-up five times. In 2024 Women's clubs competed in the CONCACAF W Champions Cup.

Qualification for CONCACAF competitions

Men's clubs

For the CONCACAF Champions Cup, up to nine American soccer clubs are eligible for entry into the competition. Starting in 2024, all MLS clubs (United States or Canada based) may qualify through MLS or Leagues Cup. [1]

CompetitionDetailsSinceEligible clubsRef.
MLS Cup champion Major League Soccer (Division I) championship1996MLS-only [2]
Supporters' Shield winnerMajor League Soccer regular season winner2006 [3]
Conference regular season winnerMLS Conference regular season champion of conference opposite of Shield winner2014 [4] [5]
Next best clubsTwo highest-ranked clubs in MLS regular season standings that have not already qualified2023 [1]
Leagues Cup champion, runner-up, and third-place finisherCompetition between clubs from MLS and Liga MX 2023 [1]
U.S. Open Cup championDomestic cup competition1963All U.S. clubs [6]

If one (or more) MLS club(s) were to qualify through multiple methods, then the next MLS club(s) with the most overall table points, regardless of conference, would qualify in the remaining slot(s). If the U.S. Open Cup champion has qualified through multiple methods, then the runner-up would fill the slot; should the runner-up have already qualified, then the next best MLS club in the overall table would earn the slot. If the Leagues Cup champion were to win the MLS Cup, then the MLS Cup runner-up would qualify to the round of 16; should the Leagues Cup slot(s) have already qualified, then MLS would be awarded with one additional slot to be given to the next best non-qualified team in the overall table. [7]

In past competitions, such as the North American SuperLiga (held from 2007 to 2010), the best teams based on regular season record to not qualify for the Champions League participated. [8]

Women's clubs
