Orlando City SC
Orlando City SC has announced the signing of goalkeeper Carlos Mercado from Orlando City B of MLS NEXT Pro to a short-term agreement.
Mercado has been a standout for Orlando City B this season, featuring in four matches and recording 16 saves. His impressive performances have earned him a 2-1-1 record, showcasing his potential and reliability in goal.
Orlando City B signed Mercado to an MLS NEXT Pro contract ahead of the 2024 season, and his recent form has merited this opportunity with the first team. The short-term agreement will allow Mercado to step up and provide crucial depth for Orlando City SC during a busy stretch of the season.
Orlando City SC continues to leverage the talent within its developmental system, promoting players like Mercado who have shown promise and readiness for higher levels of competition. As the team pushes forward in their campaign, the integration of emerging talents will be key to their success.
