“On behalf of the club, I want to thank Robin for his passion and commitment that he brought to Toronto FC as head coach over the last two years,” general manager Jason Hernandez said. “Unfortunately, the performance and results did not meet our expectations for this roster, and it was determined that a new voice is required to take it to the next level.”

Toronto was within striking distance of a playoff berth after a 2-0 win against Red Bull New York on Oct. 17. However, the team lost three of four games after that, eventually finishing seven points out of a post-season spot.

Toronto hasn’t made the post-season since 2020 when it finished second in the East but was ousted in the first round.

Then-head coach Greg Vanney stepped down afterwards, ending a seven-year tenure that including winning the MLS title in 2017.

The team has since gone through six coaches, including Fraser. Toronto hasn’t finished higher than 11th in the East since 2020.
