Jason Kreis has a home again: The former RSL coach has landed at Orlando City SC in his first position since being fired as New York City FC coach.
Jason Kreis was the head of Real Salt Lake from 2007 to 2013, and he was the first player the club signed. Under Dave Checketts’ ownership, Kreis was brought to help build the “character and spirit” of the team, former RSL coach John Ellinger once said.
In 2007, Kreis retired from his playing career to become RSL’s second coach; at the end of his second full year, he found himself hoisting the biggest trophy in American soccer as Real Salt Lake won the MLS Cup.
