Veteran forward CJ Sapong happy for new adventure north of the border with Toronto FC

TORONTO - Now on his fifth MLS team, newly acquired Toronto FC forward CJ Sapong says uprooting your family doesn’t get any easier.

Especially with a wife and kids aged two and five. But he’s happy to land with TFC.

“Definitely a surprise,” Sapong, asked about this week’s trade from Nashville, said after training Friday. “It’s been a little bit of a whirlwind. Fortunately I’m able to get right into the group and focus on a game (Saturday against visiting New York City FC). For us, in our position, the best thing is to just play football.
