Orlando City midfielder Andrés Perea said it’s still sometimes hard to believe how much his life has changed in the last year.
Since he signed with Orlando in December 2019, the 20-year-old has become a regular starter and game-changer for the Lions, earning a first-ever cap on the U.S. men’s national team in the process.
“When I arrived to Orlando I had dreams to keep developing as a professional player, keep improving my game and improving myself as a person,” Perea said. “What I achieved last year has really exceeded my own expectations.”
Coming to Orlando was a homecoming of sorts for Perea, who was born in Tampa.
