what's the average salary in the mls soccer league?
The average player salary is higher, however, though this probably artificially inflated by the high-profile additions of Defoe and Bradley. The average MLS salary for 2014 is $207,831 â up from last fallâs average of $165,066. However, in 2013, 76% of players made less than the league average. In 2014, that number has risen to 83% of the league making less than the league average.
