By his own hand (or foot), over the course of this season, Sebastian Giovinco has demonstrated that it’s time for a change. Not a change in terms of leaving Toronto FC, but a change in terms of how his skills are used.
Next year could be the final season that the three best Designated Players in Toronto FC history play together. Giovinco’s contract and Michael Bradley’s contract both end at the conclusion of 2019, and Jozy Altidore’s contract ends just one year later. Assuming that Altidore remains for the upcoming campaign, the club has thirteen more months to maximize its return from their current DP trinity.
