I believe this article should be merged together with the
Orlando City SC article. It seems
redundant of us to have two separate articles covering the same team over different periods of time. It would be one thing if it was where the teams had different ownership and disbanded with the rise of a phoenix club, a la
AFC Wimbledon,
Seattle Sounders FC or
SV Austria Salzburg, but these two articles of the same involve the same ownership group.

I see why you would suggest it, but for continuity, and as a reflection of the quirks of American soccer clubs, I might suggest keeping them separate. From a fan prospective (and I count myself one of those fans) they lump the two into a singular entity, as they kept the name, mascot, nickname, and embrace the history. However, it's more accurate (maybe in a meaningless way) to say that Orlando City dissolved, sold off the remainder of the club to become Louisville City, and the ownership group established a new team with the same name.
