Toronto FC signs veteran MLS defender Matt Hedges

After a number of departures, Toronto FC has finally made their first defensive signing during this offseason.

The Reds announced that Hedges has put pen to paper on a two-year contract with options through 2026 using Targeted Allocation Money (TAM).

“Bringing a dominant centre- back was one of our priorities during this offseason, and we are happy to have Matt joining our club,” said Toronto FC President Bill Manning.

“He is an MLS Defender of the Year with a ton of MLS experience that will help lead our backline. His presence and leadership will be critical as we continue to build the roster.
