Gallese’s Orlando City Future Uncertain as Renewal Talks Stall and MLS Interest Grows

Orlando has begun post-elimination meetings to settle 2026 roster decisions.

Overview

  • Pedro Gallese’s contract expires in December 2025 and negotiations to extend it remain unresolved due to a salary impasse, according to multiple reports.
  • Several MLS clubs have inquired about the Peru captain’s availability, with Inter Miami named in reports as a potential suitor.
  • Local reporting indicates Orlando City has started immediate meetings with players and agents to determine who stays for the 2026 project after the playoff exit.
  • Wilder Cartagena also reaches contract end in December 2025, and his status is uncertain after missing the entire season with a ruptured Achilles sustained in preseason.
  • Gallese, 35, logged 40 appearances this year across competitions, conceding 63 goals with nine clean sheets, figures that underpin his market value in talks.
