VANCOUVER, BC -
Vancouver Whitecaps FC announced today that the club has acquired D.C. United’s natural 2014 fourth-round selection – second-round MLS Supplemental Draft – in exchange for the right of first refusal to former Whitecaps FC striker Kyle Porter.
Porter, 23, was a member of the Whitecaps FC Residency program during the 2007-08 season before spending two seasons on loan with Germany's FC Energie Cottbus. In August 2010, the native of Mississauga, Ontario, re-joined Whitecaps FC and made five appearances for Vancouver in the United States Soccer Federation Division-2 Pro League season. Porter has spent the last two years with North American Soccer League side FC Edmonton.
Whitecaps FC kickoff the 2013 MLS season this Saturday, March 2, against Canadian arch-rivals Toronto FC at BC Place. Season tickets are available and start at $349, plus applicable service charges and fees.
