SEATTLE — Toronto FC president Bill Manning and manager of player engagement Jason Hernandez are in Italy as guests of Italian super agent Andrea D’Amico.

And they are not there to check out the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Think more along the lines of visa, not Pisa.

Manning wouldn’t say exactly which players he is watching but did tell the Toronto Sun that he and Hernandez will take in three matches in three days.

It’s no secret that the Reds are looking for at least two more players to add to the squad, and at least one winger.

A couple of weeks ago, GM Ali Curtis was in South America on a scouting venture.

Last month, TFC brought in attacking midfielder Alejandro Pozuelo from Genk of the Belgian First Division and the diminutive Spaniard has been outstanding so far for Toronto.

D’Amico was instrumental in bringing his client Sebastian Giovinco to Toronto in 2015. The Italian forward, who scored 83 goals for Toronto, left TFC to join Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal in the off-season, though Manning still has a good relationship with D’Amico.
