Orlando Pride GM Erik Ustruck working behind scenes to rebuild team

SANFORD, Fla. — The Orlando Pride’s rebuild is about more than implementing a new system on the pitch.

Erik Ustruck, who is in his first season as the Pride’s general manager, wants the club to be a destination for players around the world. He is pushing to build a winning culture that will ll last years.

There’s a lot to get done.

First and foremost, fixing the winless Pride’s current on-the-field issues isn’t as simple as adding new players, though Ustruck is hopeful he can sign new players soon.

Players brought in midseason don’t count for a full cap hit, which makes things easier, despite Ustruck’s limited cap space.
