Adding Borre and subtracting Altidore would be interesting.
He also picked up a knock in training and will miss the USMNT's match against T&T tomorrow.

Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
Now the borre rumor makes sense. I'd be so happy if they brought borre in and Jozy was sent packing.
Tenorio confirms that there have been inquiries from overseas.

That Tenorio tweet hints at European interest....
probs Turkey or middle east
It is Jozy himself who wants to leave the club according to ESPN.

Late christmas present if he leaves
Hmmm....
If that is the case, and Carlisle has no reason to make this stuff up, he be gone no matter what.Sources confirmed the possibility he could be on the move, and emphasized the fact that the player's relationship with TFC -- and GM Ali Curtis in particular -- had reached a breaking point, and that he no longer wants to play in Toronto.
that doesnt shock me,,,because conservative curtis does not seem like a proactive guy more a reactive guy
So now with that news, I'm concerned if Ali Curtis is alienating players that are already here or ones that are thinking of coming. I'm getting more concerned the more I hear about him.
But it’s jozy. If it were any other player maybe but even most of us fans are sick of jozy’s shit. I think this actually reflects positively on Ali. We gave him a huge contract and he’s not reciprocating. If we let him continue coasting through his contract without kicking up some dust, I’d be more concerned.
Gotta think Jozy is gonna need to take a fairly big pay cut to get his move away.

If Ali can get rid of Jozy that would be amazing. Imagine he pulls off signing borre, a dp winger and gets rid of Jozy alwayssore.
Absolutely! Maybe it’s something to watch for with Curtis but I’ll give him a pass on this one.
I hate to see Jozy leave on a sour note but my $0.02 is it’s time for all involved to part ways
Ironically, from the same article:
“Berhalter told media that Altidore picked up a slight injury at the U.S. men’s national team January camp“
I find it very strange that the US men's coach would be bring up that a number of clubs have expressed interest in a player currently under contract with a team, and tied that to not playing him in a US men's game to avoid further injury. After checking a couple of quotes and articles, it seems that he said at least that much. (Some of the additional info came from "sources.") Is Berhalter a bit clueless, and/or has he confirmed with one or both sides that they want him to talk about that? Not a topic that a national team coach would normally touch. He could have said neutrally "Jozy has recovered, but due to the upcoming club pre-season, we want to avoid any risk" or something like that.
If it's true that Jozy is on his way out, and that there's some bad blood with Curtis, I'll take a very neutral view on that. I mean Jozy's a legend for TFC, but there were enough issues from both the player and from management over the past few years that I would not want to take any side in this.

So, his national team coach is the devil? I don't get it.
