🇮🇹©️ Lorenzo Insigne was one of the best players on the pitch. Involved in buildup to goal, most chances created (5), third-most touches (86), and completed 94% (60/64) of his passes.

🔴 Toronto FC get a terrific footballer, still performing at high level.

#JuveNapoli #TFCLive Image
Perfect example of how Lorenzo Insigne can be very influential, even when he doesn't score or assist. The attack flows through him. Creates chances, combines very well, likes to shoot from distance, often plays the "pass before the pass" in buildup to goals.

#JuveNapoli #TFCLive ImageImage
🇮🇹 Lorenzo Insigne isn't a typical winger, he's really a number 10 who starts on the wing. He moves inside a lot, plays between the lines, receives the ball in pockets, links the phases of play, and orchestrates the attack. Lots of touches. Excellent passer.

🇮🇹✨ Lorenzo Insigne is an entertaining player with wonderful skill, brilliant technique, and tactical intelligence.

🔴🔥 Perfect fit for the kind of fluid, free-flowing, high-tempo, entertaining, attacking style of football that Bob Bradley likes to play.

#TorontoFC #TFCLive Image
🇮🇹⭐ Lorenzo Insigne is the centerpiece of TFC's ambitious new project, and the team will be built around him.

Terrific technical ability. Excellent passer. Scores goals, provides assists, creates chances, combines very well, and links the phases of play together.

#TFCLive Image
🇮🇹 Lorenzo Insigne is a high-volume player. He gets a lot more touches and completes a lot more passes than other wingers/attackers. He likes to shoot a lot from distance and often scores golazos, though isn't a clinical finisher. Almost every attack flows through him.

Bill Manning says Lorenzo Insigne and his family are looking forward to a different life experience in Toronto. The schooling for his two sons, who attend an international school in Naples, is important to him. And he'll have support from the large Italian community.

#TFCLive Image
Bill Manning confirmed that he worked with Lino DiCuollo and Andrea D'Amico in TFC's pursuit of Insigne. His first call was to D'Amico, with a list of targets—Insigne at the top—to check if they would be interested. DiCuollo, former MLS VP, is now an advisor to Manning.

Bob Bradley doesn't like the word franchise: "For me, it's something like McDonald's."

A club is different:

"A club has a real heart and soul that starts with the connection with the city. That's absolutely about the connection with the fans."

Bob Bradley:

"I had an idea through Michael and Jeff of everything inside TFC. But having been here now for some weeks, it's been just awesome to get to know people. Seeing that commitment and passion every day, that's important to me. That's important to a club."

Bob Bradley

"One thing I've always tried with my players and certainly with my family is your ability to look around you and have perspective of other people, other people who don't look like you, who come from different situations, who in some cases aren't as fortunate as you."

D'Amico:

"We were focused on closing Insigne's operation, but the club has 5 or 6 targets, we'll soon start working on others. I haven't talked to the club yet, but I have an institutional relationship with them that is not limited to only this deal."
