Match29 May 2027

Nowhere to hide for Orlando City

0‑3 against Atlanta United FC, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Market31 May 2027

Clint Irwin asks to leave Orlando City

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad31 May 2027

Chris Brady keeps Orlando City in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

The dugout31 May 2027

Josh Wright: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Orlando City have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad31 May 2027

Words exchanged at Orlando City

Antoine Griezmann and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad31 May 2027

Appearance number 200 for David Brekalo

200 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

Boardroom31 May 2027

Inquest at Orlando City

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.

The dugout31 May 2027

A promise honoured for Chris Brady

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Orlando City told Chris Brady something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Squad31 May 2027

Words at Orlando City training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Niko Markovic is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad29 Mar 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Clint Irwin

35 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Orlando City lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market29 Mar 2027

Orlando City turn down Vancouver Whitecaps for Tiago Souza

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad29 Mar 2027

Chris Brady is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 23 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Market29 Mar 2027

Orlando City sell Nolan Miller for $1.5M

Nolan Miller has left for San Diego Football Club in a $1.5M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Transfer targets29 Mar 2027

Portland Timbers tell Orlando City: Juan Mosquera is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market29 Mar 2027

CF Montreal join the queue for Iago

Add another name to the list: CF Montreal have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Iago. The answer from Orlando City has not changed — yet.

Squad29 Mar 2027

A row about effort at Orlando City

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Niko Markovic was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad29 Mar 2027

The formation has left Niko Markovic behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Orlando City will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

The dugout29 Mar 2027

No hiding place for Forrest Lasso

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Forrest Lasso, and the manager let it.

Squad14 Dec 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Eduard Atuesta

38 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Orlando City lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Boardroom14 Dec 2026

Orlando City book their European place

Done, and with games to spare. Next season has floodlit nights against clubs from other countries in it, and the accounts have a line they did not have last year.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Tempers go at Orlando City

Braian Ojeda was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Home is on Robin Jansson's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Orlando City are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Josh Wright signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Josh Wright and Orlando City agree another 3 years.

Market14 Dec 2026

Maxime Crépeau linked with a move away

The name of Maxime Crépeau keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Orlando City say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Eduard Atuesta damages knee ligaments — 47 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 47 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market7 Dec 2026

Martín Ojeda wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Tiago Souza wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Orlando City can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Orlando City lose Clint Irwin

19 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Words at Orlando City training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Eduard Atuesta is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

The manager makes an example of Justin Ellis

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market7 Dec 2026

Antoine Griezmann linked with a move away

The name of Antoine Griezmann keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Orlando City say nothing, which says plenty.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

Yutaro Tsukada has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Orlando City will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

Clint Irwin has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Clint Irwin has written the date down.
