Orlando City signed left back Jonathan Suarez on loan from Quarétaro for the 2021 season. With first choice left back Joao Moutinho out of action until some time between April and June to recover from injury, the Lions had to bring someone in to fill the void. The left back area needed the most attention in the off-season, and the club opted for Suarez to fill in.
Like Brandon Austin, the 23-year-old does not take up an international spot, so on paper the signing is a smart choice. More importantly, many Orlando supporters may be wondering what Suarez’s addition means for the Lions on the field.
