The current off-season has been a good one for Orlando City SC fans as the Lions were not shy in the transfer market, acquiring a handful of players to bolster the offensive system, such as Sacha Kljestan, Josué Colmán, and Stefano Pinho. The last piece of the attacking puzzle was Justin Meram.
Acquired from Columbus Crew SC in exchange for over $1 million in allocation money, the Iraq international winger has the tools to fill an important role in the team’s offense. According to General Manager Niki Budalic, that’s actually what he was brought to do.
