Among the nominees, we see Italian star Lorenzo Insigne nominated for MLS Goal of the Year 2024. He earned his nomination for a stunning goal he scored against Charlotte FC on March 9, 2024. In that match, Toronto FC secured a 1-0 victory thanks to Insigne's brilliant strike in the 80th minute.

This goal was crucial at that point in the season when the campaign was just beginning, and Insigne proved his value by helping his team in this early season win, making it clear that Toronto FC would be competitive in 2024.

The second nominee is Prince Owusu, Toronto FC's breakout striker of the season. Owusu is in the running for the Goal of the Year award thanks to his spectacular goal against New England Revolution.

This goal, scored on April 20, 2024, was a game-winner in a 1-0 victory for Toronto FC. Owusu netted an incredible backheel goal in the 66th minute, showcasing his lethal ability in front of goal. He has been a key figure for Toronto FC this season, even finishing as the team's top scorer with nine goals in MLS 2024. There is great anticipation for Owusu to return and continue representing Toronto FC next season.

Both Lorenzo Insigne and Prince Owusu are deserving contenders for this prestigious award, thanks to their spectacular goals. Toronto FC fans are hopeful that one of their stars will take home the MLS Goal of the Year title.
