TORONTO - A medical issue involving Italian star Lorenzo Insigne’s family promoted Toronto FC to delay its flight out of Nashville on the weekend.
Toronto coach Bob Bradley said Insigne “was made aware of a family health situation” after the team boarded its charter following Saturday’s 4-3 win over Nashville SC.
“We actually delayed out takeoff for 45 minutes just to make sure that he was comfortable with things at that moment,” Bradley said. “We got home and everything has been monitored since. But it’s very important that in this time he’s with his family.
“I think everything’s going to be OK.
