Toronto FC Buys Out Hefty Contracts of Italy’s Insigne, Bernardeschi

  • On July 1, 2025, Toronto FC and Italian forwards Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi agreed to terminate their contracts, ending their costly tenure with the club.
  • The decision followed ongoing transfer talks and internal discussions under new MLSE president Keith Pelley, who took charge in April 2024.
  • Insigne scored 19 goals with 18 assists in 76 games while Bernardeschi contributed 26 goals and 22 assists across 99 appearances for Toronto since mid-2022.
  • Toronto freed up two designated player salary cap hits pegged at $743,750 each, cutting Insigne's $15.4 million and Bernardeschi's $6.295 million salaries to ease financial constraints.
  • Their departures open roster flexibility with two designated player spots available, suggesting Toronto will revisit its DP strategy to rebuild a playoff-contending team.
