Toronto FC finally have their centre-back. After the worst defensive season in club history fans and media alike clamoured for the club to bring in some depth in the middle of the backline.
The club were able to tick a lot of boxes with the acquisition of Laurent Ciman. The 33-year-old Belgian centreback was acquired through the allocation order. Toronto FC made a couple of minor trades in order to secure the top spot.
Signing a defender of Ciman’s experience and age is a clear sign that TFC still believe they are in a window to win now.
