Club career[edit]

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Ordonez began his career with youth soccer clubs Kings Hammer Academy and Cincinnati United Premier.[2] In 2016, he joined the youth academy at Major League Soccer club Columbus Crew. He stayed with the club until 2019 when he joined the youth squad at FC Cincinnati for their inaugural season as a program.[3]

On July 3, 2021, due to performances with the youth squad, Ordonez signed a professional homegrown player deal with FC Cincinnati on a three-year deal.[2] He made his competitive debut for the club on July 24, coming on as a substitute in a 3–0 away defeat against Nashville SC.[4]

Ordonez scored his first career goal for FC Cincinnati in a U.S. Open Cup match versus Louisville City FC on April 26, 2023.[5]

On April 4, 2024, Ordonez was loaned to Swedish Superettan side Östersund for the remainder of their 2024 season. Östersund would retain an option to make the deal permanent.[6]

In May 2023 he was named to the U-20 squad for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[8][9]
