Hours before a game against Toronto FC, D.C. United made a trade with a different Canadian team, acquiring attacker Yordy Reyna from the Vancouver Whitecaps. United, who also acquired a 2020 international spot in the deal, sent $400,000 in 2021 General Allocation Money (GAM) to the Whitecaps to acquire the 27-year-old Peruvian international.
Reyna, who has 27 caps for Peru, will be looking to link up with international teammate Edison Flores once the latter returns from injury. A versatile attacking player, Reyna can play as a striker, as a second forward, on either wing, or as a no.
