The allocation ranking is the mechanism used to determine which MLS club has first priority to acquire a U.S. National Team player who signs with MLS after playing abroad, or a former MLS player who returns to the league after having gone to a club abroad for a transfer fee. Chicago traded allocation ranking positions with Seattle Sounders FC on August 26, 2011, with Seattle gaining the #4 position and Chicago receiving the #6 position. http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=4283531 Chicago Fire Acquire Third Round 2012 SuperDraft Pick from Seattle - OurSports Central 26 August 20112011 MLS Roster Rules Major League Soccer https://web.archive.org/web/20110430101816/http://www.mlssoccer.com/2011-mls-roster-rules 2011-04-30 International roster spots Chicago has 8 international roster spots. Each club in Major League Soccer is allocated 8 international roster spots, which can be traded. There have been no reported trades involving Chicago international roster spots for the 2011 season. There is no limit on the number of international slots on each club's roster. The remaining roster slots must belong to domestic players. For clubs based in the United States, a domestic player is either a U.S. citizen, a permanent resident (green card holder) or the holder of other special status (e.g., refugee or asylum status).
