Orlando City announced today that the club has re-signed veteran center back Robin Jansson to a new contract. Jansson had his option year picked up after the 2020 season but the Lions rewarded his solid play with a new two-year deal with two additional option years that could see the Beefy Swede remain in a purple kit through 2024. It could potentially be Jansson’s final professional contract, as he will turn 30 in mid-November and would turn 33 just after the 2024 season.
“Robin is committed to what we are building here at Orlando City, so we are very excited to come to terms on a new deal and secure his place on our roster for future seasons,” Orlando City Executive Vice President of Soccer Operations Luiz Muzzi said in a club press release.
