Toronto FC have made a major change to their coaching staff, announcing the departure of Bob Bradley and the appointment of Terry Dunfield as interim coach.
Bob Bradley had been the head coach of Toronto FC since January 2019, but the team had failed to make the MLS playoffs in either of his two seasons in charge. After a disappointing start to the 2020 season, Toronto FC decided to part ways with Bradley and look for a new direction.
Terry Dunfield has been appointed as the interim head coach of Toronto FC. Dunfield is a former Canadian international who has been part of the Toronto FC coaching staff since 2018. He was previously the head coach of the Vancouver Whitecaps in 2013 and 2014.
Dunfield has been tasked with helping Toronto FC to turn their fortunes around and make a push for the playoffs in the second half of the season. He will be assisted by fellow Toronto FC coaches Chris Pozniak and Michael Rabasca, who will remain on the coaching staff.
Toronto FC will be hoping that Dunfield can bring some stability to the team and help them to make a late run for the playoffs. It remains to be seen if he can help turn the team’s fortunes around, but one thing is for sure: Toronto FC have made a bold move in appointing Dunfield as their interim head coach.
