TFC's Djordje Mihailovic wasn't able to find his groove in 2026

"Personally, I just felt like I let the team down because I know I have a certain role in this team," the DP midfielder said.

Much was expected of Djordje Mihailovic this season at Toronto FC, with the general feeling that the DP midfielder would have to be at his best if the Reds were going to become a legitimate playoff contender.  

But it didn’t work out the way Mihailovic and TFC wanted in 2026, and now they’re looking back upon a season in which the club failed to meet its key objectives, including making the playoffs for the first time since 2020.

Had Mihailovic been able to stay fully fit, things might have turned out differently for a Toronto side that was decimated by injuries for the first half of the campaign.
