Why Orlando City
Here is the argument for Orlando City: USA, USA MLS, and a ground called Cairo International Stadium. A second team should give you something your first one cannot, and this is a different country's whole weather system.
Nothing won, everything to play for
No major honours on record, which means every cup run is uncharted territory and every promotion feels like a coronation.
Cathedral football
Cairo International Stadium holds around 75,000. Even a routine league game arrives with a noise floor most clubs only reach in a semi-final.
You get a nickname
Known as الشياطين الحمر (The Red Devils) نادي القرن الإفريقي (African Club of the Century. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.
