Player transfers

{{main article|List of Major League Soccer transfers 2016}}

=Allocation ranking=

The allocation ranking is the mechanism used to determine which MLS club has first priority to acquire a player who is in the MLS allocation list. The MLS allocation list contains select U.S. National Team players and players transferred outside of MLS garnering a transfer fee of at least $500,000. The allocations will be ranked in reverse order of finish for the 2015 season, taking playoff performance into account.{{cite web |author=MLS Soccer Media |url=http://www.mlssoccer.com/allocation |title=MLS Allocation Ranking |publisher=mlssoccer.com |date=January 27, 2015 |access-date=January 27, 2015 |archive-date=December 12, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181212201817/https://www.mlssoccer.com/allocation |url-status=dead }}

Once the club uses its allocation ranking to acquire a player, it drops to the bottom of the list. A ranking can be traded provided that part of the compensation received in return is another club's ranking. At all times each club is assigned one ranking. The rankings reset at the end of each MLS season.

Note: Vancouver's and Seattle's attendances are both over 100% capacity because, for select games, they open up additional sections above the regular limited capacity. Orlando's and New England's attendances are over 100% because their capacities are artificial; both teams regularly sell more tickets than the limit. San Jose's attendance is over 100% capacity because they played one game at Levi's Stadium (68,000 capacity).
