Terrence Anthony Boyd (born February 16, 1991) is an American professional soccer player who plays for Toronto FC in Major League Soccer.

Boyd is the son of an American serviceman and his German wife. The family returned to the U.S. shortly after his birth, settling in Queens, New York. However, his parents soon divorced, and his mother returned to Germany along with Terrence. His father was soon out of his life, and his mother eventually remarried. Boyd credits his stepfather for much of his success, saying in a 2012 interview,

I don't think I would have become a pro without him because I am a lazy guy... He was really strict, but he helped me to stay out of the trouble and all the s--- that could do some problems for you. I'm a guy who is trying to get better every day, and that focus, I got it from him.

Boyd grew up playing in various youth systems but made his senior debut with Hertha BSC II in 2009. After a couple of seasons primarily on the bench, where he made eight appearances and four appearances, he found a role in the starting lineup and ended his final season with 13 goals. After his contract with Hertha expired, he signed with Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga and debuted with their reserve squad Borussia Dortmund II. On October 22, 2011 Boyd received his first call-up to the Borussia Dortmund first team in their Bundesliga match against FC Cologne. Although he dressed as part of the 18-man squad, Boyd did not play in Dortmund's 5-0 win over FC Cologne. He didn't make any appearances for the first team and scored 20 goals in 32 appearances for the reserve team.
