TORONTO - Toronto FC has acquired American defender Justin Morrow from the San Jose Earthquakes in exchange for allocation money.
The move beefs up the Toronto backline with the 26-year-old Morrow able to play both fullback and centre-back.
In four years with the Quakes, Morrow has played in 71 games with 63 starts.
Morrow started for the U.S. in a 0-0 friendly against Canada last January.
San Jose picked Morrow in the second round of the 2010 MLS SuperDraft.
