The Kids Are Alright: Analyzing the latest batch of TFC academy graduates

It was never going to be easy to transition following Greg Vanney’s departure, but since Bob Bradley’s appointment as Head Coach and Sporting Director, Toronto FC has seen a growth in youth players being offered their first professional contracts with the first team. Moreover, it’s never a bad sign to give new players a chance to grow in a bigger environment. Sometimes, however, it comes down to injuries within the squad, but most of the time, their addition to the first team is due to players deserving the chance to make an impression on the big stage.

Coach Bradley has previously stated his appreciation for utilizing the youth in the squad at his disposal, and with the injury list growing in recent weeks, TFC has had to make strong replacement suggestions as to who will likely earn some minutes with the first team.
