Federico Bernardeschi has gone from strength to strength this season, becoming decisive in the last few matches he has played with Toronto FC. The forward has found his role on the pitch, making significant contributions both in attack and defense.
The Significant Moment Bernardeschi is Experiencing with Toronto FC
John Herdman and Bernardeschi had stated a few days ago, after Toronto FC's victory in the 401 Derby against CF Montreal, how Bernardeschi has taken on additional responsibilities in his role as a wing-back/full-back. His great commitment to drop back and become a fifth defender for the team has been evident in matches.
"He talked to me about playing as a full-back because he thought he needed unconventional players in that position. And I immediately said to him: I can be this for you and for the team, no problem."

For Toronto FC, Bernardeschi's excellent form is very positive news. Additionally, they hope that Lorenzo Insigne will soon experience the same success, creating a lethal duo in the team's offense. However, they will need to keep working hard to help TFC reach the MLS Playoffs in 2024.
