Player to watch: Brian White
We mentioned previously in our article White’s name. That’s because he is the Whitecaps’ top goalscorer this season! With 10 goals scored already, the 29-year-old striker is now a frontrunner for the Top Goalscorer Award at the end of the campaign.
White is having a wonderful season
White needs only six more goals to match his 2024 Major League Soccer tally. Seeing as Minnesota United aren’t exactly thriving, we expect to see the very best of White this week.
