TORONTO (AP) — Robin Fraser was hired Friday by Toronto, his third Major League Soccer head coaching job after Chivas USA and Colorado.

Fraser, 58, replaced John Herdman, who quit in November after about 14 months. Toronto missed the playoffs, finishing 11th in the 15-team Eastern Conference with 11 wins, 19 losses and four draws.

Fraser agreed to a contract through the 2027 season.

A defender who made 27 appearances for the U.S. from 1998 to 2001, Fraser coached Chivas USA in 2011 and ’12, and Colorado from August 2019 until September 2023.

He was a Toronto assistant under Greg Vanney from 2015-19, helping the team win its only MLS title in 2017.
