WTR Top 20, No. 10: Super-sub Tosaint Ricketts has come a long way

Though he was born in Edmonton, Tosaint Ricketts’ journey to Toronto FC saw him travel approximately 29,500 kilometres over seven years. From the University of Wisconsin to stops all across Europe (through Finland, Romania, Norway, Turkey, Israel and Turkey again), Ricketts had one heck of an excellent adventure.

Including the playoffs, Ricketts made 17 appearances for TFC in 2016. Signed only in late July, he played 433 minutes and scored five goals. Those with quick fingers, and a calculator, will equate that to an average of one goal every 87 minutes - better than a goal per game.
