Orlando City has already had a somewhat busy off-season. Midfielder Junior Urso ended his three-year run with the team to return to his native Brazil, and the club signed two players prior to the start of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. However, the club has more to do between the end of the World Cup and the start of the 2023 MLS season.
In addition to Urso leaving, the Lions entered this off-season with some key players out of contract. The club re-signed club captain Mauricio Pereyra to a two-year deal on Nov.
