π Djordje Mihailovic had one word constantly escape his lips on Friday: trophies.
With Robin Fraser, who was part of #TFCLiveβs glory days coaching, Mihailovic is keen to help recapture the winning feeling.

π To acquire Djordje Mihailovic, Jason Hernandez and Co. had to cross a few hurdles.
But heβs their guy, a player who had admired #TFCLive and only wants to bring the club back to glory.
That much was clear from his first presser.

The Golden Boot race didn't change on Sunday, it's still:
Sam Salter - 11
Julian Altobelli - 9
11 matches left in the #CanPL.

York and Ottawa really are each otherβs match. You can literally see them figuring out how to break down each other in the moment.
Both teams are set up very strongly on defence.
#CanPL
Forge, man. All I can say.
#CanPL
26' - Fly Me to the Moon (yes, really) serenades Hamilton Stadium for the first time this season as Tristan Borges smokes home the opener for #ForgeFC!
No comment on how well it works as a goal song, but still a very well-taken goal that Valour let up on.
#CanPL
CF MONTREAL WIN!
They take their Leagues Cup opener over Club Leon after a 7-round penalty shootout. Deserved after #CFMTL was by far the better team, especially in second-half creation.
Second win on the bounce since the Saputos declared a rebuild... very interesting.
Thomas MΓΌller to the Whitecaps had one last hurdle, and it's almost been conquered.
#VWFC has nearly got MΓΌller's discovery rights from FC Cincinnati, paving the way to a deal MΓΌller seems to want.

Bottom line: England looked like the champions of Europe. They knew who they were and exuded confidence in that shootout.
Spain didnβt look confident, despite their pedigree.
Penalty masterclass from the Lionesses, even after that hiccup on the first shot.
π¨π¦π₯WORLD CHAMP SUMMER MCINTOSH
Pure dominance from 18-year-old Canadian as she swims to a win in the womenβs 400m free in Singapore for her 9th 50m World Champs medal.
Also the third best time of her career and she qualified for the 200m IM final too.
Iβm conflicted on this, because I would love a good playoff race but the top five teams are giving us such exciting games every week!
Like HFX/Forge and York/Cavs were amazing this weekend

Julian Altobelli and Sam Salter both scored today, bringing them to 9 and 11, respectively.
The race is well and truly on π I really think this is the year someone break's Morelli's single-season scoring record (14)
#CanPL
A midseason charge from York United?
Julian Altobelli's first-half strike leads the Nine Stripes to a sixth-consecutive result, leapfrogging Halifax for fourth in the #CanPL table.
Cavalry's goal drought also continues as Diego Urtiaga gets the clean sheet.
π· CFC Media/Tony Lewis
YORK WIN! THAT'S SIX UNBEATEN!
A huge defensive performance, albeit one that got a bit too physical at times, got the job done. A scrum at the end involving Oswaldo Leon.
York closes the gap with Cavalry to one point.
#CanPL
WHAT A DOUBLE SAVE FROM URTIAGA, THAT IS REMARKABLE!
#CanPL
Honestly I don't think York is targetting Ntignee, he just happens to be on the ball a lot, but that Leon tackle was outright violent. Lucky to get away with a yellow.
This is getting ugly, fast.
#CanPL
*Believe it's actually 13th in all comps, which is absurd
26.07.2025 22:03 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Altobelli scores completely against the run of play!
Cavalry doesn't play it out of the back cleanly, Kembo Kibato muscles his way to the ball, and Altobelli with the collected finish.
9th of the #CanPL season for Alto, 12th in all comps.
I did forget how good Goteh Ntignee is. Magical player.
#CanPL
Ryan Telfer wow!! I don't think Koleilat - or even Telfer himself - thought that would be going in off the first touch.
#CanPL
Ben Paton HELLO?!?
What a goal to continue a magnificent few weeks for him.
Forge's ball movement elite again.

@CPLCavalryFC's current attacking depth chart:
ST - Tobias Warschewski
LW - Jay Herdman, Caniggia Elva
RW - Ali Musse, Nicolas Wahling
CF - Sergio Camargo, Ayman Sellouf

#CanPL
I did not see this coming! Cavalry announces Ayman Sellouf is joining them on a 1+2 contract.
Sellouf was a showstopper on his day for Pacific and Vancouver. Fantastic as a super-sub. Tremendous skill.
Cavalry is loading up! Their attacking corps is insane.
#CanPL
Love this move for Nash. Heβs a wonderful coach and better person, couldnβt be happier for him.
His time at York also had attendance issues and a ton of U21 players, and he did quite well with the little he got. A similar situation at VFC.
#CanPL
Itβs official: Afshin Ghotbi is out at Vancouver FC, making way for Martin Nash to become interim HC.
Ghotbiβs two and a half seasons had some high expectations yet few highs, with reported locker room issues a factor.

Nothing yet
Maybe a return to England? He made a mark there with Watford. Just my speculation though
We've known for a while that IsmaΓ«l KonΓ© probably wouldn't be sticking around at Marseille. He does seem to be on the way out.
It started with promise, but KonΓ© was unfairly treated there and never given a chance to shine.
His next move is key.
