Throughout the 2021 season, injuries at outside back have come with a silver lining for Orlando City — an opportunity to develop homegrown defender Michael Halliday.
The homegrown outside back has become a key player for the Lions this season, filling in for João Moutinho in critical matches like last week’s rivalry game against Inter Miami.
Halliday first landed on the Lions’ radar when he was 12. His former club team, FC America, faced off against an Orlando City youth side.
