Inter Toronto Football Club announced Thursday the signing of Ecuadorian winger Ariel Almagro to a contract guaranteed through the 2026 season, with a club option for 2027.
Almagro, 24, joins Inter Toronto as a left-sided attacking player with experience at Ecuador’s top professional level and in international competition. Born in Quito, Ecuador, the winger brings pace, versatility and a strong understanding of high-performance environments.

Primarily deployed as a left winger, Almagro is capable of operating across the attacking line and midfield, offering balance, energy and attacking depth. His profile aligns with Inter Toronto’s approach to building a competitive squad that blends emerging talent with international experience.
