Sean Johnson - Could be available Saturday Johnson (hamstring) could be in the squad to face Sporting Kansas City on Saturday, manager John Herdman told media, including John Molinaro of TFC Republic, on Friday.
Lorenzo Insigne - Set to miss several weeks Insigne is expected to miss around six weeks due to a hamstring injury, manager John Herdman told media, including John Molinaro of TFC Republic, on Friday.
Impact This is a massive blow for a Toronto team that had gotten off to a solid start this season, as the play of the star winger had been a significant reason behind Toronto's good performances with two goals across five starts. Given the timeline provided by Herdman, Insigne is expected to return at some point in early May, assuming there are no setbacks. The earliest he might return would be a matchup against New York City FC on May 11.

Lorenzo Insigne - Working on return Insigne (undisclosed) was only able to train partially Tuesday ahead of Saturday's match against Sporting Kansas City, reports John Molinaro of the TFC Republic.
Impact Insigne was only able to play the first half Saturday after he was forced off with an undisclosed injury. He has already two goals in five matches played, logging in 10 shots (four on target) and five chances created. This will continue to give him a questionable tag for Saturday, depending if the midfielder can return to team training.
MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE
Shane O'Neill - Not in full training O'Neill (undisclosed) was present for just part of training Tuesday, reports John Molinaro of the TFC Republic.
Impact O'Neill had to come off during Saturday's clash with Atlanta with an undisclosed injury. He will look to return to team training this week, as he continues to be questionable for Saturday's clash with Sporting Kansas City. If the defender does have to sit out, then Aime Mabika will likely get the start at center back, alongside both Kevin Long and Sigurd Rosted.
MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Osorio - Quiet outing off bench Osorio registered one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Atlanta United.
Impact Osorio subbed on in the second half and could not do much during his limited time in the ptich, logging just one off-target shot, one inaccurate cross and one corner kick. The midfielder started Toronto's three first game in the season before picking up a hip injury. He will now look to reclaim his spot in the squad after the international break.
MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE
Federico Bernardeschi - Takes six shots versus Atlanta Bernardeschi recorded six shots (three on goal), seven chances created, six crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Atlanta United.
Impact Bernadeschi led Toronto in shots and chances created in a great offensive effort during their home win. The midfielder also sent in the second-most crosses and took three of their six corner kicks. He has yet to score or assist, though, after five starts.
MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE
Prince-Osei Owusu - Scores as substitute Owusu scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 win against Atlanta United.
Impact Owusu subbed on in the second half and scored his first goal in the season in the 71st minute to double Toronto's lead and seal the deal. The forward came off the bench for the second time in the campaign, starting in three other games. He did not score at all in 2023 in six appearances (three starts).

Deandre Kerr - Assists against Atlanta Kerr assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Atlanta United.
Impact Kerr created Tyrese Spicer's opener in the 35th minute with his first assist in the season. That was his first start and second overall appearance in the campaign. The midfielder logged only one assist for the club in 2023, so he is now set to top that number.

Lorenzo Insigne - Picks up injury Insigne was forced off with an injury at half time during Saturday's clash with Atlanta.
Impact Insigne was forced off early in the second half due to an injury. The forward is obviously the focal point of the Toronto attack and is tough to replace. Kosi Thompson came on to replace him and could get the start for a March 30 clash with Kansas City.

Jonathan Osorio - Could get minutes Saturday Osorio (hip) could get minutes during Saturday's game against Atlanta United, manager John Herdman told John Molinaro of TFC Republic.
Impact Osorio was not included in the Canada squad for the international break due to a hip injury, but the midfielder has recovered quicker than expected, to the point that he could see minutes off the bench this weekend. Osorio missed the previous match against NYCFC, but he'd been a starter while logging the full 90 in the other three Toronto matches this season.

Richie Laryea - Set for three months out Laryea (hamstring) is expected to miss three months after undergoing a hamstring surgery, Toronto announced.
Impact Laryea is expected to spend three months on the sideline following a serious hamstring injury. This will put him on the sideline until the middle of the season at the very least. This extended absence should give Kobe Franklin more chances in the starting XI moving forward.
MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE
Raoul Petretta - Held out due to groin issues Petretta was held out from Saturday's match against New York City FC due to a groin injury, per John Molinaro of TFC Republic.
Impact Peretta is the latest player from Toronto to hit the injury list, as he went down with a groin injury last week ahead of Saturday's contest. The club has yet to give much information about the injury, so it is still unknown how severe the issue is or when he will return. We will now have to wait to see his availability ahead of Saturday's match against Atalanta, just hoping the player is available, as he started in the club's first three games of the season. However, if he is not an option, expect Sigurd Rosted to get the start again after replacing Peretta against NYCFC.
