Thank you Sir Alex for 27 years of memories that shall forever be cherished. Thank you for making the impossible dream possible.

"Tal Ben Haim has been one of the top defenders in the EPL for nearly a decade. He captains his national team and Ryan thinks the world of him," said Toronto FC president and general manager Kevin Payne.
