Two days after Atlanta United midfielder Franco Ibarra was told that he would be loaned to Toronto FC, his head is still a mess, he said. He spoke to FelipeCar about the surprising move.

From his home in Smyrna, roughly 15 minutes from Atlanta United’s training ground in Marietta, the soft-spoken Ibarra expressed his struggles with the situation. . “I have thousands of questions. But there’s no point in dwelling on this. That’ll make it worse for me.” On June 26, Toronto fired head coach/sporting director Bob Bradley. At the time, Toronto had recorded three wins, seven draws and 10 losses on the season. Toronto has not won a game since and is just two points ahead of last-placed Inter Miami in the Eastern Conference.
He said he was told by Bocanegra that he is a player with “high value,” and that other MLS teams were interested in a loan deal. That did little to ease Ibarra’s frustration. He said that he felt disrespected by the way Atlanta United had handled the situation. On Friday, Ibarra wrote on Instagram that his loan caused him “pain and sadness” and that he had “insisted on staying in Atlanta.” Several of his Atlanta United teammates wrote downtrodden replies on his post. Former Atlanta center forward and 2018 MLS MVP Josef Martínez, who in January was dealt to Inter Miami with one year left on his Atlanta United contract, responded “Same s—”, followed by a facepalm emoji. “Players here think this type of thing is normal,” Ibarra said.
“I mean, are you serious? I still don’t know when I have to be in Toronto,” said Ibarra. “These are things that should be talked through. Is it good for me? Is it a bad move for me? But instead I showed up to train and they didn’t let me train. I had to turn around and go back home. Legally I have to go. I have to show up there. I’m a Toronto FC player now. Even if I wanted to try and stall the deal by saying that I didn’t want to go to Toronto, I couldn’t. The deal was already closed.

Why the Braves are built for a title, in the eyes of Tom Glavine and John SmoltzATLANTA — Many expected the Braves to descend to the level of mere mortals on May 5.
