VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Whitecaps are keen to play down the hype and attention surrounding their homegrown prospect Alphonso Davies.
That's a task that's easier said than done when you're starting a 15-year-old in MLS matches and his performances are attracting the attention of scouts from English Premier League clubs.
Davies made his second MLS start in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Seattle Sounders, earning a penalty for his side with an exciting move and hustle that typifies just why the Whitecaps were keen to sign the winger to a professional deal sooner rather than later.
