TFC offers Theo Corbeanu a chance 'to bounce back'
After playing for seven teams in four countries from 2021 to 2024, Corbeanu is looking to finally get his club career going with Toronto FC.
For someone so young, Toronto FC newcomer Theo Corbeanu has packed a lot into his short playing career.
Corbeanu, 22, cut his teeth in TFC’s youth academy before joining the youth system for Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2018. After signing his first pro contract, a 19-year-old Corbeanu made history as the youngest Canadian (at the time) to play in the English Premier League when he made his debut for Wolves against Tottenham on May 16, 2021.
During his time with Wolves, he was sent out on loan to English outfits Sheffield Wednesday, Milton Keynes Dons and Blackpool, as well as Arminia Bielefeld (Germany) and Grasshopper (Switzerland). Last February, he joined Granada CF, becoming one of the few Canadians to ever play in Spain’s La Liga. Now the native of Hamilton, Ont., is back home, having joined TFC on loan from Granada for the duration of the 2025 MLS season. As part of the transaction, Toronto has a purchase option to make him a permanent signing.
It’s a loan deal that represents a new beginning for Corbeanu. He has moved between seven teams in four countries from 2021 to 2024, so this is a chance for the Canadian international to “to bounce back” and finally get his club career going.
