Jaziel Alberto Orozco Landeros[a] (born 2 June 2004) is a Mexican professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for NIFL Premiership club Larne, on loan from Major League Soccer club Real Salt Lake.

Career[edit]

Born in Ciudad Juárez, Orozco was raised in El Paso, Texas.[2] He is the son of former professional player, Alberto Orozco.[3] Prior to joining the Real Salt Lake youth setup, Orozco had participated in trials with Liga MX clubs Tigres UANL and Santos Laguna.[2] He also played with Intercups MX, a club side which played in tournaments around the world and the Dallas Cup.[3] In 2019, Orozco was selected to join a trial for the Real Salt Lake youth academy and passed.[3]

On October 4, 2020, Orozco was called in to Real Monarchs, an affiliate club of Real Salt Lake, for their match against El Paso Locomotive but did not come off the bench.[4] On April 7, 2021, Orozco received his first appearance with the main team in their pre-season match against Phoenix Rising.[5] He then made his professional debut on May 8, 2021, for Real Monarchs in their USL Championship opener against San Antonio FC, starting in the 2–2 draw.[6] Following the match, Orozco signed a professional contract with Real Monarchs.[7]

On January 13, 2022, Orozco signed a homegrown player contract with Major League Soccer side Real Salt Lake.[8]

On March 26, 2022, Orozco made his MLS debut for Real Salt Lake, after begging subbed on at half-time for defender Erik Holt in a 1–0 loss away at Sporting Kansas City.[9]

On February 3, 2023, Orozco joined Mexican club Santos Laguna on a season-long loan.[10] The loan deal was terminated in August of the same year, with the defender subsequently joining NIFL Premiership side Larne on loan for the rest of the 2023–24 season:[11][12] the player was granted international clearance on August 31.[13]

On September 2, 2023, Orozco made his debut for Larne, starting in a 4–0 league win over Newry City.[14]
