Orlando City B announced the appointment of Fernando Jose De Argila Irurita as the team’s head coach for the 2019 USL League One season.
De Argila makes the move to head coach of the returning professional team after spending the previous three years as head coach and director of methodology at the Soccer Institute at Montverde Academy (SIMA), the home of Orlando City’s development academy. Rather than going outside of the club for a coaching candidate, the hiring of De Argila by OCB General Manager Mike Potempa is one of continuity, bringing someone in who already understands the philosophy.
