The invitational will run from July 18 to July 25.
In addition to the international clubs and the Monarchs, Colorado and Vancouver will participate in the competition.
Ali Curtis, SVP of Competition and Operations for MLS NEXT Pro, said that the addition of international talent should make for a competitive tournament.
“Providing an opportunity for our clubs to face international opponents has been a key focus for our League since day one,” Curtis said. “In addition to the high level of competition MLS NEXT Pro clubs face during League play week in and week out, the ability to also compete against teams from across the world can only benefit everyone involved. We appreciate the collaboration and partnership with Premier League 2 and Bundesliga and look forward to a terrific tournament.”
