Jonathan Toto (born 30 March 1990) is a French footballer of Cameroonian heritage, who is a striker that last played for Greek side Doxa Drama in 2013.
Toto began his career in Cameroon with Canon Yaoundé before moving to Italy to sign for A.C. Legnano. After they were wound up, Toto moved to Scotland to sign as an amateur for Greenock Morton before being quickly released. He moved to Singapore with Etoile FC in 2011 and then to under-23 side Courts Young Lions.
Career
Scotland
Heart of Midlothian manager Jim Jefferies brought Toto to Edinburgh on trial in August 2010[1] and was trying to finalise the deal with the FIGC over his registration[2] after his last club A.C. Legnano were wound up.[3] During his trial he appeared as a second-half substitute in a friendly against Premier League side Blackburn Rovers.[4]
He spent the last part of 2010 on an amateur contract with Greenock Morton, in the hope of moving permanently to Hearts in January 2011.[5] Allan Moore stated that he was unlikely to be kept on due to failing to find form, saying that:[6]
"To be honest, I would have to say he's been disappointing".
As a result, Toto was released by Morton towards the end of 2010, and returned to the land of his birth.[7]
Singapore
In March 2011, Toto signed for Etoile FC in the S.League in Singapore. After scoring 12 goals in 24 league games for Etoile, the club gave up their place in the S.League to concentrate on grass roots football. Toto signed for Courts Young Lions in January 2012.[8] Young Lions had finished four places below Etoile the previous season.
Greece
In the first 2013 transfer window, Toto transferred to Greek side Doxa Drama in the second tier. Toto was released by Dramas at the end of the season having failed to score in 15 matches.
