Age: 25

Contract Expires: 2022

Michel's future is an interesting question for Orlando City's front office to answer in the coming months. The former University of Portland Pilot is far and away the best Homegrown signing in club history and has had some incredible moments for his local team, including a magical display in the US Open Cup final this season.

But the overall season from Michel wasn't what the Lions would've wanted and at 25, it's hard to see much of a ceiling for him at this point. If it's a cheap new deal, Michel would be a no-brainer to bring back, but there's a real possibility he gets sold/traded or let go this offseason.
