Toronto FC loses goalkeeper Sean Johnson for four to six weeks with broken hand

Toronto FC’s nightmarish season took another turn for the worse Wednesday with news that goalkeeper Sean Johnson will be out four to six weeks with a broken hand.

The MLS team said Johnson was injured during training Tuesday and will be assessed this week by a hand specialist to determine if surgery is needed.

The 34-year-old ‘keeper, who joined Toronto before the season as a free agent from New York City FC, has a goals-against average of 1.16 in 19 league outings with six shutouts this season

Johnson, a U.S. international, is in his 14th MLS season. He was named MLS Cup MVP in 2021 with NYCFC and was an all-star last season.
