Toronto FC fire head coach and three others after another losing season

There's a big shakeup coming to the Toronto FC coaching staff.

After the team missed the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season, Toronto FC is parting ways with yet another coach.

Toronto FC announced Monday that head coach Robin Fraser has been relieved of his duties after two seasons in the role.

Since winning the MLS Cup in 2017, the club has only made the playoffs twice. Under Fraser, Toronto finished 12th in the Eastern Conference in back-to-back seasons, with the head coach compiling a 15-26-27 record in MLS play.

This season in particular, the club was among the worst teams in the league when it came to conceding goals, ranking 26th of 30 teams.

The last time Toronto FC reached the playoffs was during the shortened 2020 season, and the club has now gone through six head coaches in seven seasons.

"On behalf of the club, I want to thank Robin for the passion and commitment he brought to Toronto FC as head coach over the last two years," said Toronto FC General Manager Jason Hernandez.

"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."

Fraser wasn't the only member of the coaching staff shown the door on Monday. The club also parted ways with assistant coaches Neil Emblen and Wolde Harris, along with video coach Jase Kim.

Hernandez said Toronto FC will immediately begin searching for a new head coach as the club looks to become a consistent contender again ahead of the shortened 2027 MLS season, which kicks off in February.
