Orlando City fans had hopes last year that Chicharito might be on his way to Orlando.
He’s in Central Florida this week, but with Bayer Leverkusen and not as a Lion. Chicharito, one of the hottest goalscorers in global soccer, will play twice with Leverkusen in the Florida Cup – Sunday, Jan. 10 and Wednesday, Jan. 13 – before heading back for the second half of the Bundesliga season.
He sat with the Sentinel on Wednesday to talk about his current form, MLS, the Mexican national team and more.
