The Latest on the effects of the new coronavirus outbreak on sports around the world:
Major League Soccer has extended its training moratorium through April 24 because of the coronavirus outbreak.
Team facilities are closed to players and staff — except for players requiring treatment that cannot be administered at their homes.
Players are expected to remain in market with their teams during the moratorium to avoid the spread of the virus. The league will consider individual requests for players to travel to another city by car.
