Frédéric Scheiber / Sipa
Since his arrival from Limoges, his hometown, in 2016, he was considered one of the great hopes of the TFC.
But Adil Taoui will have played only 23 minutes in Ligue 1 and 19 in Ligue 2 in three appearances with the Violets first team.
Removed from the professional group for two months, the young 19-year-old striker, initially under contract until June 2022, was dismissed by the current third in L2.
"At the end of the disciplinary proceedings against Mr. Adil Taoui for serious misconduct, Toulouse FC decided to terminate the employment contract which bound him to the player," the club said in a statement.
The TFC "will not make any additional comments concerning this disciplinary procedure", specifies the text.

Very deteriorated relations with Garande
The international U16 and U18, who had received some short-lived requests during the transfer window last summer, has not been seen as a pro since the first day of L2, on August 22 against Dunkirk (0-2).
In November, the LesViolets.com site had mentioned a deterioration in relations between coach Patrice Garande and Taoui.
Until the point of no return then.
It remains for the young player to find a club to fulfill the prophecy of Patrick Gonfalone, made in April 2017. “For me, it's Ben Arfa, assured his coach in the U16 tricolor.
I had Hatem at the same age in Clairefontaine.
Adil is of the same ilk.
I wish him the same career, if not better.
