Even before he got traded, Cam Lindley already had an idea of what Orlando City was like.
“I’m pretty good friends with Tommy Redding so I got to talk to him about it when he was here,” Lindley said. “He said it’s just such an amazing environment. The guys are amazing, Jason [Kreis] and his staff are great so when I heard the news I wanted to get down here as soon as I could.”
Orlando City acquired Lindley’s Homegrown rights from the Chicago Fire and promptly signed the former North Carolina Tar Heel to a four-year contract.
