Tokolomety was accused of faking his year of birth on his passport by the Israeli media, a claim that was never proving to be true. In result of these publications, Netanya decided to release him from his contract.[2] Tony's son Idan Gorno is also a footballer, he was born in Israel and plays now for Maccabi Petah Tikva and the Israel national under-19 football team.[3] In 2018 a documentary movie titled Toklomati was released on what happened to Tony while playing in Israel, while now being on a journey to Israel in order to become an Israeli citizen to live next to his Israeli born son. The movie got accepted in the Jerusalem Film Festival and the Chicago International Film Festival.[4][5][6]
