Former Toronto FC defender Adrian Serioux made his first appearance on Gol TV this week, along side Lee Godfrey on Toronto FC today.
Sources within MLSE have told Canadian Soccer News that may not be the only role Serioux plays on Gol TV this year.

Since TSN announced its broadcast team this year would be Luke Wileman and Jason DeVos, questions have lingered as to who would call the games on Gol TV this season.
DeVos, who is still under contract at CBC and will work the Women's World Cup for them this summer, will not be returning to the MLSE-owned channel.
Wileman, who has become the play-by-play voice for TSN's MLS broadcasts, will continue to call the limited games on Gol TV this year but this season will be his last.
And it appears Serioux, who has been a free agent since Houston declined his contract option and he wasn't picked up in the re-entry draft, is now in line for the Gol TV colour commentary role.
If it goes through - and the MLSE sources say the details have yet to be finalized - it will be interesting to see how the former Red and national team player adopts to his new role. He was never the most outgoing of guys and in fact, he was pretty introverted anytime he was interviewed - but then most players make a habit of trying to say as little as possible in front of reporters.
But what do you think? Do you like to see former members of the team and natives of the city return to take on broadcasting roles? Or would you rather leave it to the professionals, regardless of their connection to the club?
