Toronto FC loans teenage defender Adam Pearlman to CPL's Halifax Wanderers

TORONTO — Toronto FC has sent teenage defender Adam Pearlman on a season-long loan to Halifax Wanderers FC of the Canadian Premier League.

The 19-year-old Canadian youth international from Maple, Ont., made his first-team debut with TFC off the bench in July 2023 against St. Louis City SC, having signed a short-term contract.

He graduated to the first team as a homegrown player in February 2024.

Pearlman, who joined the Toronto academy in 2016, made 72 appearances from 2022 to 2024 with Toronto FC II in MLS Next Pro play.

“Adam is another promising young Canadian talent we are pleased to welcome to Halifax this season," Halifax sporting director Matt Fegan said in a statement.
