The salaries of Toronto FC’s most recent acquisitions, Tosaint Ricketts and Armando Cooper, were published by the MLS Players Union on Friday.
Ricketts takes home a $63,000 base salary, which is just above the senior minimum of $62,500 and also earned by the likes of Daniel Lovitz, Nick Hagglund and Quillan Roberts, among others. The only players below him are Mo Babouli and Tsubasa Endoh, who earn the $51,500 reserve-roster minimum.
That is a team-friendly price but does not include Ricketts’ bonuses, and his signing bonus takes his guaranteed compensation for 2016 up to $81,333. That figure is calculated by dividing the bonus by the number of years in the player’s contract - including option years - which suggests Ricketts has a deal that could run until 2018.
Cooper, meanwhile, earns a base salary of $180,000, which puts him fifth among the club’s non-designated players. His signing bonus for 2016 is $13,333, which again suggests the Reds have the option to extend his time in Toronto beyond his current loan for another two years.
There are some discrepancies on this list compared to the one released in May; most significantly, Benoit Cheyrou’s base salary is now $150,000 rather than the $250,000 listed four months ago. Here it is in full:
