Dichio ready to play out career at Toronto FC

Daniel Dichio is ready to play out his career with Toronto FC. The former QPR and Sunderland striker has agreed terms over a new deal with Toronto football chief Mo Johnstone.

The 34-year-old was hampered by concussion problems last season, but still managed to score five goals in 23 appearances. Dichio had a base salary of US$157,000 in 2008.

"I'm overjoyed with the new deal because it has been going on for a while," Dichio said in an interview with TFC's Web site. "We agreed in principle to the terms and I'm really happy because I wanted to get it sorted before I go back to England. I'm happy here and my family is happy here so I want to be here for a very long time."
