### Roster slots

Toronto currently has 6+3 international roster slots and three Designated Player slots available for use in the 2022 season. Beginning in 2022, MLS added three non-tradeable international roster spots to the Canadian franchises to compensate for the more complicated residency requirements compared to in the United States; players occupying these additional roster spots are required to have played and been registered with a Canadian MLS club for at least one full year. They traded an international roster spot along with the 2nd spot in the Allocation Order to New York Red Bulls in exchange for $575,000 in General Allocation Money. They traded another international roster spot to Nashville SC along with loaning Jacob Shaffelburg in exchange for $225,000 in General Allocation Money.
