Free agent this winter
Orlando City winger Chris Mueller has attracted interest from Belgium. According to a report by The Athletic, RSC Anderlecht, KV Oostende, and OH Leuven have shown serious interest in the 25-year-old forward. The report further adds that Leuven have already made a formal offer for the winger but Orlando have been unwilling to entertain a transfer.
Mueller has had a phenomenal 2020 campaign and increased his market value to $3.85 million. This season the winger has scored two goals and four assists and is a big part of an Orlando side that is currently pushing for a top spot in the Eastern Conference of Major League Soccer. As a result, Orlando are somewhat reluctant to move the player.
Another issue is Mueller’s contract. The 25-year-old will be a free agent this winter and, in theory, could already sign a contract with a new club ahead of a January 1, 2022 move. Orlando can, therefore, not expect a major transfer fee should they opt to sell Mueller now. Mueller, according to The Athletic, would prefer a summer move to give him time to integrate into his new side.
