Giovinco has decided to return to Italy and Serie A after his current contract finishes. This ends any dream of him wearing TFC red again.
...

Duane Rollins says Seba is likely heading to Serie A.

We tend to appreciate more in-depth discussion which would look at analysis, tactics, team dynamics and in-depth news. Twitter is the place to rant.

You obviously are very, very, very angry...

No problem. It looks from your user name that you created this account to complain. Since TFC doesn't monitor this board, maybe you should tweet your complaints directly to them, or phone your rep....

Either you are doing a really lousy job of trolling, or you really believe that Seba alone can make TFC a winner. Which is it? If you aren't trolling, try to avoid exaggeration and highly...

Probably true!

People think that because it appears that he wants out of his contract, at least how people read the situation with cryptic posts, oblique statements and such. We don't have proof for a court of law.

Some people just see dollar signs and that blinds everything else. Other people take the whole picture into account. Happens in almost every profession, sports is no exception.

Saudi is one of...

Or maybe his board membership dates from 2014, and DeRo happened in 2011.

This is factually incorrect, Duane DeRosario had a thread when he had another team sign his cheque and he left (April, 2011). A similar situation in some ways, although with much more rancor.

A...

It may possibly take signing another decent Serie A player for it to end. For some people I know that's really important. Right now we only have Michael Bradley in that category, and before him there...

No player currently with TFC is as game-changing as Giovinco was in 2016-2017. However, I've noticed that Pozuelo is far more succesfull at PKs than Giovinco was (once the league got used to him). ...

Altidore didn't have a Saudi offer.

Poz may not be a speedster, but he isn't even the slowest player on TFC, let alone the league.

Salaries except for TAM and DPs are 100% paid by the league's "salary budget," which comes from the league's cut of the gate, the salary budget is actually where the revenue-sharing goes. 100% of the...

The loss at the gate is actually a lot less due to MLS revenue sharing and amounts due to the city. It's about a third, or less than $1m.

However, there has also been a decline in sponsorships...

Seba didn't say "my son attends 'X' school," so he didn't intend to reveal that information (whether or not enough clues came through unintentionally for those in the know). That's enough. It's not...

Done.

Doxxing, even if not malevolent is a no-no. Sometimes curiosity can be answered in non-specific ways.

Serie A team interested in Seba:

My read, it's wishful thinking. Even if Seba regrets going to Saudi, which is completely understandable and believable, fitting him back in the salary structure and with the new people who have been...

Seba's contract was expiring. A Saudi team offered him much more money than TFC was willing to pay. He signs with the Saudi team. No one "got rid of him." It's just that TFC thought he would sign...

If TFC got a transfer fee from Mexico for Bradley coming mid-season it could be an interesting possibility.

I think it's not going to actually go through, although it's completely realistic that...

Lets just say that IF he comes back and I'm not convinced he is, he's not going to Dallas. So TFC may have to trade for the top allocation, but it will happen.

There's no real evidence for this,...

The only "source" I saw was a Saudi Twitter user that was quoting a kid who was speculating. I'm not sure that Joey has real sources (such a Seba's agent).

Lol!
All players who have several years MLS experience have guaranteed contracts. That was a big part of the last CBA.
