One of just six players left from Orlando City’s USL days, Luke Boden saw his numbers of minutes and overall form drop in 2016.
Boden started the season at No. 2 on the depth chart at left back for the Lions before moving up to the starting role when Brek Shea was converted back to the midfield midway through the season.
After appearing in 25 games and playing over 2,200 minutes for Orlando City in 2015, Boden only appeared in 20 games (19 starts), playing just over 1,600 minutes this past season. While the 27-year-old Englishman didn’t score this season, he did assist on goals three times, one less than his season total from last year.
