Lorenzo Insigne to Return to Toronto FC for 2025 Season Amid Transfer Rumors
In a significant development for Toronto FC, General Manager Jason Hernandez has confirmed that Lorenzo Insigne will return to the team for the 2025 MLS season. This announcement comes despite rumors of a potential departure.
Insigne, the league’s second-highest-paid player with a guaranteed compensation of $15.4 million, has been with Toronto FC since 2022. His contract runs until June 2026, and the team was reportedly unable to find a buyer for his contract this offseason.
The Italian forward’s return is a crucial development for Toronto FC, which is looking to rebuild and compete for playoff spots in the 2025 season. With Insigne’s experience and skill, he is expected to play a key role in the team’s success.
However, Insigne’s time at Toronto FC has been marked by injuries and inconsistent performances. He has scored 18 goals and provided 13 assists in 63 appearances for the team, but his lack of production and availability have raised concerns.
New Toronto FC head coach Robin Fraser will face the challenge of motivating Insigne and keeping him healthy throughout the season. With the team’s new desired style of play focused on being “fast” and “direct,” Insigne’s experience and skill will be crucial in driving the team’s success.
