Former Sheffield United defender Nickseon Gomis could become a top MLS defender.
That is the view of Toronto FC boss John Herdman, who was impressed by Gomis during a trial.
Toronto hope they can hold onto the defender for some time, with the 22-year-old likely to attract interest in Europe if he does fulfill his potential.
“For us, he's come as advertised and he's growing in confidence," stated Herdman.
“I think his durability is what we're building, he hasn't been able to really sustain those 90 minutes under his belt.
“His preseason was interrupted by a concussion, his season was interrupted by his wrist injury.
"When he gets that in, this is a player that is going to be one of the top center-backs in MLS this season. That's the expectation I have for him and the pressure we've been putting on him."
