Will Johnson: Leaving Toronto FC ‘easy’ after being ‘disrespected’

If there’s one thing we learnt about Will Johnson this season, it’s that he wears his heart on his sleeve.

That manifests itself on the field in moments like his Voyageurs Cup-winning goal against the Vancouver Whitecaps, which sealed Toronto FC’s only silverware of 2016.

It also means he is unafraid to speak his mind and call things as he sees them, no matter who he might piss off - which is exactly what he has done now he has left the club for Orlando City.

Johnson called out Greg Vanney in an interview with Laura Armstrong of the Star, revealing that his departure from Toronto was not quite as amicable as it seemed from the outside.
