I'd personally like to see him one more season at TFC and have him give Jozy at a run for his money. I kind of don't want him to jump to Europe until after he commits to Canada too.

Bison44 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Try being the big word there. If he thinks he has overseas interest, who knows if they'll be able to keep him? Dominic94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohan Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Trabzonspor forced a transfer of Fabian Castillo from FC Dallas which left a bad taste for MLS FO I bet. If this rumour is true, well, I don't think Trabzonspor is a bad team for Akinola to go to. However, I'm always cautious about any transfers to a Turkish team outside of big Istanbul teams. You might not get paid. Addona, Dominic94, Free kick and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he starts strong why stay in MLS, he had a few moments where he looked like a young Jozy, that would be a player coveted by many. I don’t think TFC will be able to keep him from leaving on a free if the interest is high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think European clubs are hoping they might find another diamond which likely means overpaying for good players. Not a bad thing for the MLS.

toontownman Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 To be fair I shouldnt be a negative Nellie. Tesho didn't have a camp with us. He went to the US one and filed for the one time switch didn't he? Hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOcanadafan Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Ayo has tough choices to make. I’m not sure if he’s at a level that he can hold out until qualifiers are over (going with Canada if they qualify, and the US if Canada doesn’t make it) which might be how he and his camp are thinking at the moment.

I don’t see it that way. If he is healthy, both countries will be calling him for the next March qualifiers. If these games happen as planned, we will know his decision by the end of March.

soccer.shocker Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Another ESPN article up yesterday with a long discussion about USMNT needs for 2021-22 including finding a striker that lists just about everyone except Akinola. Hopefully he’s read it. Addona and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t he still choose to go with the US for Olympic qualifiers and then ultimately with Canada for the senior national team ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
