ORLANDO, Fla. — Major League Soccer is looking at the possibility of resuming the season this summer with all teams playing in Orlando, Florida. 

Details are still under consideration, but a person with knowledge of the plan told The Associated Press that the league’s 26 teams and limited staff would likely be sheltered in a resort with games played without fans at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney World.

Teams could head to Florida as early as June 1 for training camps. 

The league suspended play on March 12 after teams had played just two games.
