The Sebastian Giovinco era in Toronto is over.
Toronto FC, unwilling to meet the Italian international’s contract demands, has sold the star striker to Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal FC, according to a source.
Toronto had already turned down one bid for the Atomic Ant from a Middle East club. But facing an impasse in contract negotiations, the MLS side got what it could for Giovinco on Wednesday with the January FIFA transfer window about to close.
