VANCOUVER, BC – Vancouver Whitecaps FC bolstered their attacking options on Wednesday with the acquisition of forward Brian White from New York Red Bulls in exchange for $400,000 in General Allocation Money – pending the receipt of his International Transfer Certificate (ITC) and visa. The Red Bulls could also receive up to an additional $100,000 in conditional GAM.
“Brian is a player with good finishing qualities, as he has proven over the past two MLS seasons,” said Axel Schuster, Whitecaps FC sporting director and chief executive officer. “He gives us another attacking option as we continue our roster building process and prepare for absences due to international competitions this year.
