Orlando, FL - After receiving a number of COVID-19 positive tests within the team, Major League Soccer side FC Dallas reportedly put out an advertisement for midfield help on the freelance labor marketplace TaskRabbit.

“They realized that the team was in danger of being entirely quarantined,” stated one anonymous source. “Since they can’t really sign anyone right now they asked for an allowance from Major League Soccer for temporary labor.”

The advertisement on TaskRabbit, which bills itself as an American online and mobile marketplace that matches freelance labor with local demand, asked for help with the midfield, defenders and forwards for the MLS team.

“Do you have futsal or FIFA experience? Ever had dreams of playing professional soccer? Well we have the job for you,” read the advertisement. “Must be COVID FREE or at least willing to take a test and must bring own boots and shinguards.”

Several general managers within the league raised the objection that this could be an end around on labor rules, but according to the league they will do literally anything at this point to keep the MLS IS BACK, the tournament…. running.

“They don’t care what has to happen,” stated one league source. “Every team could test positive and they would hire scabs. At this point, the tournament is going to happen come hell, high water or unseen viruses that could cause long term lung damage.”
