Toronto FC began training camp last week with 41 players in camp. The list includes four goalkeepers, 13 defenders, 16 midfielders and eight forwards from the first team, the Academy, 2011 & 2012 SuperDraft and 2012 Supplemental Draft.



A total of 24 players are already signed to first team contracts, though Adrian Cann, Dicoy Williams and Nicholas Lindsay continue to remain technically incactive due to long term injuries suffered in 2011. Cann revealed some good news on that front at Toronto FC Media Day last Thursday, saying he was waiting on clearance from doctors to once again take active duty in training. Dutch veteran Elbekay Bouchiba was also inactive for the 2011 season picking up a preseason injury last year, but the central midfielder has recovered.
