According to Lizzy Becherano, the tournament could be set to only feature 18 teams from MLS, as all 29 had previously participated in the competition.

New update: Leagues Cup is considering a format that sees only 18 MLS teams participate in the upcoming edition. The 2025 iteration of Leagues Cup would pit 18 MLS teams against 18 Liga MX teams.

All 18 Liga MX teams will remain in the tournament, but up to 12 (including newcomers San Diego FC) MLS clubs could drop out ahead of the upcoming season.

Further constraints on the upcoming North American calendar will come in the form of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, which is set to be hosted in the United States from June 5 to July 13.
