USL Championship soccer club the Sacramento Republic FC have alleged that a staffer from MLS club Orlando City SC spied on their practice session Monday.
According to ESPN's Jeff Carlisle, a Republic equipment manager noticed the Orlando City staffer as someone who worked for Orlando manager Óscar Pareja, and he was asked to leave the premises multiple times but refused for between 30 and 45 minutes because he said he was there to meet a friend.
During the training session, which occurred at Central Winds Park in Winter Springs, Florida, members of the Republic staff reportedly moved two vans in front of the Orlando staffer in order to block his vision, but the staffer moved before ultimately leaving.
