Orlando City announced this afternoon that club Academy Director Marcelo Neveleff has left to coach the Dominican Republic national team. Neveleff joined the club in 2019 to oversee the club’s academy and coached the club’s U-23 teams for three seasons. Assistant Academy Director and U-17 Head Coach Javier Carrillo will take over the role while the club searches for Neveleff’s replacement.
“We want to thank Marcelo for his immense contributions to the club and for bringing our academy to where it is today,” Executive Vice President of Soccer Operations Luiz Muzzi said in a club press release.
