Toronto FC are making a splash by acquiring star midfielder Djordje Mihailovic from the Colorado Rapids for an $8 million transfer fee, GiveMeSport reported Monday.
The Rapids, in the thick of the playoff hunt, did not want to move Mihailovic at first, but the U.S. men's national team player requested they approve Toronto's bid, per the report.
The $8 million fee would mark a club record for Colorado. There is a reported $1 million in add-ons and a sell-on percentage tied to the deal.
Mihailovic, 26, is headed to his fourth MLS club. He joined the Rapids ahead of the 2024 season after time with the Chicago Fire (2017-20), CF Montreal (2021-22) and the Dutch club AZ Alkmaar (2023).
Mihailovic has nine goals with seven assists through 24 matches (all starts) this season, on pace to break the career highs of 11 goals he set last year. In 187 career MLS matches, Mihailovic has recorded 40 goals and 21 assists.
He has also made 11 appearances for the USMNT, scoring one goal.
Toronto (5-13-6, 21 points) sits in a distant 12th place in the Eastern Conference, 14 points out of the ninth and final playoff spot. Colorado (8-11-6, 30 points), meanwhile, holds ninth place in the West.
