Out against D.C. Gonzalez is not in Toronto's match day squad for Sunday's clash against D.C. United.

Impact Gonzalez isn't with the team on Decision Day, meaning his season is over. He scored three goals but only kept one clean sheet in 27 MLS appearances (26 starts) with Toronto in 2021. The 33-year-old missed some time with a lower body injury in October, but he held up well physically for the most part. But this was a disappointing campaign overall for Toronto, and they will want to do better on defense in 2022 than the 63 goals they conceded -- through 33 games -- this year.

Makes six clearances in draw Gonzalez made six clearances and one block during Wednesday's 1-1 draw against New York Red Bulls.

Impact Gonzalez had a lot of work against the dangerous Patryk Klimala, but still made a nice job, pacing his side in clearances and holding the opposing attack to just one goal despite the 19 shots attempted. The centre back is a mainstay at the heart of the defense for Toronto and will probably remain in the lineup for Saturday's visit to Chicago.

Late test Saturday Gonzalez (leg) is considered questionable for Saturday's match against Columbus, according to head coach Chris Armas.

Impact This doesn't appear to be a serious injury for Gonzalez, but there's a chance it's enough to keep him out of the squad Saturday. He started the first six matches of the season and if this injury is worse than believed, Eriq Zavaleta could come into the XI after replacing Gonzalez last weekend.

The extent of the injury is unknown, but if he were to miss time, Toronto would expect to shuffle their backline.
