Five franchises in the MLS (Major League Soccer, the North American professional football league) will entrust their accounts on the photo and video sharing mobile application Snapchat to one of their players, which will give a glimpse of life behind-the-scenes and develop fan experience, announced the MLS on 19/02/2015.

For one week, from 20/02/2015, one franchise per day will feature several "stories", Snapchat videos with a maximum duration of 10 seconds, to allow fans to follow their team in their daily activities. 9 of the 20 MLS franchises have Snapchat accounts.
