HAMILTON — Forge FC has signed former Toronto FC forward Jordan Hamilton to a multi-year contract.

The 26-year-old from Scarborough, Ont., was with Ireland’s Sligo Rovers FC most recently, recording two goals and two assists in 13 appearances. 

“We are very happy to welcome Jordan to our club,” Forge director of football Costa Smyrniotis said in a statement. “He is a quality player we know quite well, who will strengthen an already solid attacking group as we head into the back half of our season.” 

Hamilton joins fellow former TFC players Kyle Bekker, Ashtone Morgan and Emery Welshman at Forge.

He adds to an already potent Forge offence. The Hamilton-based club tops the eight-team CPL standings at 10-4-2 and leads the league with 37 goals.
