2023 Orlando City Position Previews: Center Backs
Rodrigo Schlegel
Age: 25
2022 Stats: 36 appearances, 2 goals
Cult hero Rodrigo Schlegel had a career year for Orlando City last season. With the club's primary starters both dealing with injuries at various points, Schlegel stepped up and became a reliable starter along the backline.
Schlegel is a beloved, fan-favorite at Exploria Stadium, and he's become one of the best third-choice center backs in MLS. He has his clear limitations on the field, but he'll be a reliable squad player again this year.
