Orlando City announced today that the club has signed Titusville native Thomas Williams to a first-team Homegrown Player contract guaranteed through 2024 with a club option in 2025. The 16-year-old Orlando City Development Academy product is the Lions’ 11th Homegrown Player signing and the club’s third this year. He’s also the team’s youngest Homegrown signing to date, at just 16 years and 10 months, surpassing Tommy Redding (17 years, one month, 15 days).
“We are really excited to get Thomas signed with the club,” Orlando City Executive Vice President of Soccer Operations Luiz Muzzi said in a club press release.
