KISSIMMEE, Fla. — As he digs into his first full preseason with Orlando City, centerback Robin Jansson will face a new challenge for 2020 — replicating the chemistry he had with fellow centerback Lamine Sané last season.
“We quite [looked] alike, both on the field and off the field,” Jansson said with a laugh while describing his relationship with Sané.
Although he was joking, Jansson was serious about the connection he and Sané felt throughout the 2019 season. From their first meeting in the locker room last year, Jansson said the two centerbacks felt natural together, becoming friends quickly.
