Obinna Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Turkish move would be interesting. I think he could play there somewhat regularly, which he'll need to do to remain in the plans. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) 8 minutes ago, Ally McCoist said: Maybe TFC is the easy move, but he'd develop just as well and have that fresh perspective in an intense league like Turkey. For the NT, better to see him with a new project on a mid-level Turkish team. There is also a lot of bias against him, and a lot in Canada. Even amongst the few replies to that Tweet. So why not start somewhere where fans and press are not waiting for the slightest mistake?

Big_M Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 ^ thing is hes under contract with mls...so either the turkish team would have to buy him or he would have to agree on a mutual termination with mls...now if an mls team claims him off waivers thats where hes going...guess thats what toronto is doing johnyb and Unnamed Trialist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 It would be a pretty decent move going to Turkey, but I am definitely down for a TFC return. Make it happen! johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadenge Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Doneil lives in the GTA. Perhaps he asked the club if he could train with the team to keep in shape. I agree with @Unnamed Trialist that it would be better for him to move to Turkey. Shway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could well be the case, Hoilett has also trained with TFC in the past but has of course never ended up playing for them as yet. gigi riva 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with @Unnamed Trialist that it would be better for him to move to Turkey. I have no idea how the MLS rules and contracts work, however. So I don't know if the natural and easy route is to another MLS team, or if he could go on another adventure without too many impediments. MLS roster rules, salary rules, I am so proud that I know nothing about them. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 TFC is probably a better spot for him than Turkey. He’s 29, so he’s not gonna suddenly develop and get a better transfer to a top league. Lots of stories about players having some difficulty getting their pay checks from Turkish teams. Plus if he lives in the GTA, he’ll have a much better time at TFC than moving to a foreign country once again. MauditYvon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) He has officially signed with TFC. Toronto FC announced today the club has signed Canadian international defender Doneil Henry through 2022. He will be added to the roster pending receipt of his International Transfer Certificate (ITC) as well as the completion of a successful physical. “Doneil has good experience in the league and can provide us with some backline depth,” said Toronto FC Head Coach and Sporting Director Bob Bradley. “He obviously has strong ties to Toronto and to the club and we know he’s excited to rejoin the team.” Henry, 29, joins Toronto FC after spending the past six months with Los Angeles FC (LAFC), where he made six appearances. Before LAFC, Henry played for the Suwon Samsung Bluewings of the Korean K-League, where he appeared in 46 matches over two seasons (2020-2021). Henry spent the 2018 and 2019 seasons with the Vancouver Whitecaps, where he made 44 appearances (MLS regular season and Canadian Championship) and registered four goals. In 2015, Henry joined English Premier League club West Ham United, and later went on loan spells with Blackburn Rovers (2015/2016) of the English Championship and AC Horsens (2016) of the Danish Superliga, where he made a combined eight appearances. The Canadian started his lone first-team match for West Ham in the 2015-16 UEFA Europa League. A native of Brampton, Ontario, Henry started his career in the Toronto FC Academy and became the first Homegrown player to sign with the First Team in 2010 as a 17-year-old, making his MLS debut against D.C. United on October 24, 2010. In five seasons with the Reds (2010-2014), Henry made a combined 93 appearances, scoring five goals. During his time with TFC, Henry won three consecutive Canadian Championship titles in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Internationally, Henry has earned 44 caps with the Canadian National Team (CMNT). He has represented Canada at the U-20 and U-23 level and in 2012 he was named Player of the Year for Canada’s U-20 squad.

Unnamed Trialist Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 TFC with one of the worst defences in MLS so far, so I hope we don't hear Henry this or Henry that, better STFU. narduch, NVsoccer and Kadenge 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rydermike Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Toronto FC was in desperate need of depth. Doneil needed to leave Unattached FC before the World Cup. Only a six month deal. Win-win deal.

CanadaFan123 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Nice move for everyone. Wonder if it was Toronto or Henry who suggested the one year deal. Suppose we’ll have to wait for the financials to judge. Corazon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
