I believe the answer is:

ronaldo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'as a celebrated striker' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'orlando must come out' is the wordplay.
'orlando' can be anagrammed to 'RONALDO'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ronaldo that I've seen before include "Red" , "Cristiano - - Portugese striker" , "Soccer star" , "European footballer" .)
