Orlando City has had some success with bringing Peruvian talent to the club. Last year, the Lions added Yoshímar Yotún to the club in the middle of the season. He is arguably the best player on the pitch for Orlando this season, so his addition has been mostly positive.
Meanwhile, the club brought in Carlos Ascues on loan from Peruvian Primera División side Club Alianza Lima, and in his two games with the club, he seems to be finding a groove early on for the Lions.
In his first match with the club, Ascues was placed in the defensive midfield.
