2005 MLS SuperDraft - Definition

The 2005 MLS SuperDraft, held in Baltimore, Maryland on January 14, 2005, was the sixth incarnation of the annual Major League Soccer SuperDraft. Expansion club Real Salt Lake drafted Under-17 midfielder Nikolas Besagno with the first overall pick. A collective bargaining agreement with the MLS Players' Union dictated that the draft be reduced from six to four rounds, although a Supplemental Draft was held to equip newly-formed reserve teams and compensate for expansion.
