Torino defender Mimmo Criscito has signed for Toronto FC.

The 35 year-old has joined the MLS club on a one-year contract.

Head coach and sporting director Bob Bradley said: “Mimmo is a versatile defender who is a very good passer and a smart player. He can play as a left back or a centre back and should be an excellent role model for our young players."

Criscito follows former Napoli captain Lorenzo Insigne to Toronto FC.

He had been with Torino since 2018.
