Major League Soccer (MLS) side Toronto FC and striker Ayo Akintola have mutually terminated his contract.
Form and injuries limited the 24-year-old Akinola in recent years, last scoring an MLS goal in September 2022.
Ahead of the 2022 season, Toronto re-signed Akinola and he later spent part of the 2023 campaign on loan at San Jose Earthquakes.
“We want to thank Ayo for his contributions to our club dating back to his days in our academy,” Toronto general manager Jason Hernandez said in a release.
“We all wish him the best in the next chapter of his career.”
Akinola has 15 goals and two assists in 90 matches, highlighted by standout play at the MLS is Back Tournament in 2020.
The 24-year-old initially joined Toronto as a homegrown player in December 2017.
He has won four caps for Canada after representing the USA extensively at youth levels
