Orlando City have sold Facundo Torres to Brazilian side Palmeiras for a club-record fee.

The Uruguayan, who spent three seasons in MLS, has reportedly left the club for around $12million.

Torres is Orlando's all-time leading goalscorer, netting 47 times after joining the club prior to the 2022 MLS season, while he also holds the club record for the most goals scored in a single season (20).

The 24-year-old made 123 appearances in all competitions, with 113 of those starts, while he also provided 25 assists.

He helped the Lions win their first trophy in the MLS era, the 2022 U.S. Open Cup, while he also played a big role as they made their first appearances in the Concacaf Champions Cup and reached the MLS Conference Finals, losing to New York Red Bulls.

"Today, I say goodbye to a club that marked an unforgettable stage in my career and in my life, my first experience as a professional away from home," Torres said in a social media post on Friday.

"Thank you to the staff, my team-mates and all the people who are part of this club for the constant support and trust from the first day.

"I leave with pride for what we achieved together and with the satisfaction of having left my mark on this club that will always be special to me.

"I wish you the greatest success in the future. Thank you for everything, Orlando. I'll miss you."
