TORONTO — Toronto FC signed midfielder Antone Bossenberry Romero to a first-team contract as a homegrown player Tuesday.

The contract runs through the 2028-29 Major League Soccer season and has club options for 2029-30 and 2030-31.

Romero, 18, becomes the 39th player in club history to sign for the first team from the TFC Academy.

The deal was completed before the Oct. 9 roster freeze.

Romero made his debut with TFC on April 25 against Atlanta United and made two more additional appearances through short-term agreements.

Romero had four goals and two assists through 33 games across the 2025 and 2026 seasons for Toronto FC II in MLS NEXT Pro action before signing with TFC.
