Mexican international defender Carlos Salcedo impressed already with Toronto FC

Back in Major League Soccer after playing in Mexico, Italy and Germany, newly signed defender Carlos Salcedo says Toronto FC is the right fit.

The 28-year-old Salcedo, who has won 48 caps for Mexico, says he was drawn by Toronto’s ambition and history of success.

“I know Toronto well because I’ve known (in) the past years they did great stuff,” Salcedo, speaking in English, said Tuesday. “For me that’s the main reason — to be in a team that wants to fight for every competition. So I’m here to help the team and do great things during this period.
