I would actually love it to be true. Yes, I would be pleased to have a top Serie A scorer in his prime here!
But between the Borre story and this one, I feel TFC fans are being played as rubes, and it’s becoming a habit for some nexus of Twitter/internet aggregator non-entities, agents, and the team PR department during renewal time. (It may be more the first two than the latter.)
It is simply kind of nuts to think that Insigne wouldn’t have good options in Europe, which seems to be the basis of these stories. I suppose it's always possible that TFC throw absurd money at him, although again, that seems highly unlikely to me.
I am just arguing for a higher footie IQ around these parts, but should probably lose the snark.
