Vancouver’s Latin American club just gained a new recruit.
The Vancouver Whitecaps announced this week the signing of Peruvian international Yordy Reyna. Reyna joins the Whitecaps from Austrian Bundesliga champions Red Bull Salzburg.
The 23-year-old forward will occupy an international slot with the Caps. Vancouver signed Reyna to an MLS contract through 2018, and also have options for 2019 and 2020. The Whitecaps used Targeted Allocation Money (TAM) to pay for the deal.
Reyna joined Red Bull Salzburg from Alianza Lima, the club he debuted with, in 2013 for 1.5 million euros.
