Orlando City winger Silvester van der Water finally arrives ahead of 2021 season

Orlando City winger Silvester van der Water landed in Orlando this week and made his first appearance at Exploria Stadium Friday afternoon.

The winger’s arrival from Netherlands marked the final offseason addition for the Lions. Coach Oscar Pareja will now have the full scope of his roster — beside striker Daryl Dike, who will remain on loan with Barnsley through May — to train ahead of the team’s home opener against Atlanta united April 17.

Van der Water signed with the team Feb. 23, but his departure from the Netherlands was delayed due to issues at the Dutch embassy.
