TORONTO - Toronto FC has loaned little-used South African forward Cassius Mailula to Belgium's KV Kortrijk with an option to make the move a permanent transfer when the loan ends on June 30.
It's a second loan spell for the 24-year-old Mailula, who was sent to Morocco's Wydad Athletic Club in August 2024.
Mailula has made just eight appearances for Toronto across all competitions, scoring two goals and adding one assist, since signing in July 2023.
KV Kortrijk currently tops Belgium's second-tier Challenger Pro League at 4-0-0.
Mailula scored six goals and added seven assists in 36 combined appearances for Wydad, including all three of the club’s group-stage matches at the recent FIFA Club World Cup. The Moroccan side opted not make the loan move permanent, so Mailula returned to Toron
