Orlando City announced today the status of club contracts for the MLS side, with 11 players departing the club following a disappointing 2017 season. Additionally, center back Léo Pereira’s loan spell expired at the end of the regular season, making it a total of 12 roster players from 2017 not returning next year.
Of course, some of those players may end up renegotiating deals and returning later.
Following the team’s final game of the MLS schedule, Head Coach Jason Kries indicated that several players would not return.
“I’m not going to lie and say Ricky (Kaká) will be the only one who won’t be back next year,” said Kreis in his postgame presser.
