Orlando City to spend part of preseason in Mexico, play eight tune-up matches

Orlando City will spend nine days training in Mexico before returning to Orlando to kick off the 2020 season.

The matches will serve as an adjustment period for coach Óscar Pareja, who will lead his first preseason workouts with his new club on Monday at the team’s new training facilities in Kissimmee. The Lions will play Stetson University during a closed door match before heading to Playa del Carmen, Mexico, for nine days of training that will include a pair of preseason matches against Columbus Crew and Liga Premier side Inter Playa.

Orlando City will return to Florida on Feb.
