Toronto FC acquiring midfielder Alejando Pozuelo from Belgian club Genk: source Globe_Sports
TFC has holes on offence with Sebastian Giovinco and Victor Vazquez departing for greener pastures in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, respectively. TFC is also trying to move Dutch defender Gregory van der Wiel after a training camp bust-up with Vanney.
Toronto has been after the Spaniard for some time. The stumbling block with Genk was the release clause in his contract and when, if triggered, it kicked in. Genk did not want to give him up immediately. Both Toronto GM Ali Curtis and president Bill Manning visited Belgium last week in a bid to pry their target loose.
