Toronto FC will be missing some star power when it tries to end a six-game winless skid Friday night against a slumping Sporting Kansas City side.
Americans Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley are on international duty ahead of the Gold Cup along with Canadians Jonathan Osorio and Ashtone Morgan. TFC recently signed defender Omar Gonzalez but he won’t be available for another month until the transfer window reopens.
Head coach Greg Vanney said the situation will give other players an opportunity.
“Everybody has got to step up and do their role,” Vanney said after a team training session.
