The 2014 MLS Expansion Draft was a draft for the Major League Soccer expansion teams New York City FC and Orlando City SC that took place between November 19 and December 10, 2014. The first two rounds of the draft (which were known as the 2014 MLS Dispersal Draft) were held to distribute players who were formerly contracted with Chivas USA, which was dissolved by the league in October 2014 shortly after the end of the 2014 MLS season.[1][2]
As determined by a "priority draft" that was conducted on September 24, 2014, Orlando City SC selected first in the expansion draft, which was held via conference call at 2:00 pm EST (UTC-5) on December 10, 2014.[3] The order of the dispersal draft was conducted through a random weighted draw that took place on November 14, 2014.[4] The league confirmed on November 7, 2014 that Chivas USA striker Erick Torres would not be made available in the dispersal draft.[5]
