FIGC president Gravina sorry Insigne leaving Napoli for Toronto

FIGC president Gabriele Gravina admits there's disappointment seeing Lorenzo Insigne sign for Toronto FC.

Insigne will move to the MLS when his Napoli contract expires in June.

"I was sad when I heard the news," Gravina told Il Corriere dello Sport.

“I watched him play at Pescara with Verratti and Immobile and it makes me sad to think that he will leave Serie A.

"I've spoken to him and I believe he hasn't taken this decision lightly, but life is made of choices and that's how the story has ended."
