Roma have confirmed that USA international Michael Bradley is on the brink of leaving the club.

The midfielder is reported to be close to joining MLS outfit Toronto FC, and his coach Rudi Garcia has admitted that he is resigned to losing him.

"Bradley wanted to go and we cannot keep hold of a player who doesn't want to be here," Garcia told reporters.

"He has done very well for me over the last few months and I understand he wanted more playing time, but when there is a midfield like ours it's hard to find space."

Bradley has made 41 appearances for Roma and scored two goal since joining the Serie A side from Chievo Verona in 2012.
