End of an era for Michael Bradley! Toronto FC and USMNT legend and former Roma and Monchengladbach midfielder set to retire

The midfielder moved to the club in 2014 from Roma and has played in Canada ever since, with his final game to come against Orlando City SC this weekend. Bradley has made 287 appearances in MLS and is also the third-highest capped United States player of all time.

Bradley has enjoyed a remarkably distinguished career, and has won the MLS Cup and the Supporters Shield during his time with Toronto, as well as the Canadian Championship on four occasions. He also lifted the Gold Cup with the USMNT twice, in 2007 and 2017.

He has also played for MetroStars, Heerenveen, Borussia Monchengladbach, Aston Villa, and Chievo, as well as Roma and Toronto.

Bradley said: “On January 13, 2014, I sat at a press conference and said that I had never been ‘more excited, more determined, and more motivated for any challenge in my entire career.’ I meant every single word.

“For the last 10 years, I have spilled my blood, sweat and tears trying to help this club be the best it could be. There were some incredible days — moments that will stay with me for the rest of my life — and some bad ones too. But I never stopped giving everything I had. Thank you to all my teammates, coaches, and everyone inside the club. … This city and this club will always be home.”

Bradley will say farewell this weekend, and bring down the curtain on a storied career.
