Why bringing Fredy Montero back to Vancouver was a 'no-brainer' for Dos Santos

VANCOUVER, BC – In the span of one week, Vancouver Whitecaps FC have solidified their striking corps with the additions of a proven MLS goalscorer and a highly-touted young talent.

After last week’s acquisition of 20-year-old Uruguayan striker Joaquín Ardaiz, the ‘Caps announced on Friday that the club has re-acquired Fredy Montero. The 31-year-old talisman, who most recently spent 13 months with Portuguese Primeira Liga club Sporting Clube de Portugal, joins Whitecaps FC on a two-year contract after scoring a team-high 15 goals in all competitions while on loan in 2017.
