Over the past 24 hours, Orange County SC has announced the return of 6 players from last seasons playoff team, including 3 teenagers and 4 key pieces to last season’s squad.
This now brings the list of known returning players to 7 (Michael Orozco was the first returning player announced by the team in early November. With other teams around the league making announcements of new signings since the end of the season, Orange County fans are hoping to hear some new names soon.
Speaking of New Player Announcements
One of the busier teams so far in the off-season has been Phoenix Rising FC. Coming off a historical season that saw the team fail to win the USL Championship Cup, they have been quite active in announcing both returning players and new signings. One of the new signings announced earlier today is Owusu-Ansah Kontor.
Orange County fans may have to choose loyalty to their club, or to a player who was a big part of a successful 2 year run. Whichever choice fans make, we wish Kontor success in the coming season (except when he is facing Orange County)!
