ORLANDO, Fla. (March 14, 2026) – Orlando City SC has signed Orlando City B goalkeeper Tristan Himes and forward Pedro Leão to short-term agreements, the club announced today. Himes and Leão will be available for selection for Orlando City’s match against CF Montréal tonight at Inter&Co Stadium. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on Apple TV. 

Himes signed an MLS NEXT Pro contract with OCB on Jan. 8, 2025, and has since made two appearances for the young Lions. He most recently started OCB’s 2–1 win over Chicago Fire FC II on Sunday, making four saves to help the side maintain its perfect 4-0-0 all-time home record against the Fire. 

Leão was acquired by Orlando City B from CR Flamengo’s Under-20 side of the CBF Brasileiro U-20 on Jan. 12, 2026. The forward has since started both of OCB’s MLS NEXT Pro matches this season and most recently scored his first goal for the club in the Lions’ 2-1 win over Chicago Fire FC II last Sunday night.
