Ever since, the club has been in need of a big name to help it turn around its underwhelming offensive performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toronto is currently ranked 12th in the Eastern Conference with a 5-13-6 record. The club only <strong>managed 25 goals in 24 matches<\/strong>, a total that sends it near the bottom of the MLS in scoring.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Canadian winger <strong>Theo Corbeanu leads the squad with five goals<\/strong>, while defensive midfielder <strong>Deybi Flores tops the assist chart with just two<\/strong>, further proving the club\u2019s need for more power up front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mihailovics-second-canadian-club\">Mihailovic\u2019s Second Canadian Club<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/djordjemihailovic\">Djordie Mihailovic<\/a> has been enjoying a productive season in Colorado with <strong>nine goals and seven assists in 24 appearances<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>26-year-old is earning $1.775 million this season<\/strong>, a relatively modest salary compared to the $15.4 million Toronto had been paying Insigne or the $6.295 million Bernardeschi earned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it goes through, the deal would bring Mihailovic his second stint in Canada. He<strong> spent two seasons with CF Montr\u00e9al from 2021 to 2022<\/strong>. In 2021, he tallied 16 assists and broke Ignacio Piatti\u2019s single-season club record.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was originally acquired by Montr\u00e9al from the Chicago Fire for $800,000 in general allocation money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mihailovic began his professional career in 2017 with the Fire, where he made 73 appearances, scoring seven goals and registering 15 assists.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Europe, he moved to Dutch club AZ Alkmaar following the 2022 MLS season, where he strived to make a significant impact but only managed to score twice in 36 appearances before going back to MLS earlier this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Internationally, <strong>Mihailovic has been capped 11 times by the U.S. men\u2019s national team<\/strong>, scoring his lone goal in a friendly against Panama in January 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Summary: Toronto FC is reportedly about to land a key piece for its struggling offense.
