Toronto FC’s braintrust has preached continuity in terms of the club’s playing staff this winter, and the message is much the same when it comes to the management team.
Reds president Bill Manning confirmed at the club’s preseason breakfast for season-seat holders last week that both head coach Greg Vanney and general manager Tim Bezbatchenko, who are out of contract at the end of 2017, will be offered extensions to their current deals.
Manning indicated that he considered it such a formality that, assuming salary negotiations come to a successful conclusion, we may not even hear publicly that Vanney and Bezbatchenko have signed on the dotted line.
