Spanish-language MLS 360 show will cease

Some live games will be produced from London
Major League Soccer will make significant changes to its broadcasts on Apple TV this season, including a significant scaling back of its Spanish-language broadcast talent, five sources familiar with the league’s plans said this week. The sources spoke to the Guardian under condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the league’s plans, which also include downscaling English-language offerings and sending some behind-the-scenes production to the UK.
Executives at MLS and Apple alike placed special emphasis on their Spanish-language broadcast plans when Season Pass debuted in 2023, suggesting the league would put those broadcasts on even footing with their English-language counterparts. Initially that held true, with the league sending a Spanish-language broadcast team to every match. In 2026, with MLS matches now out from behind the Season Pass paywall on Apple TV+, that will no longer be the case.
