VANCOUVER – The Vancouver Whitecaps have added forward Emmanuel Sabbi to their roster ahead of the Major League Soccer season.
The ‘Caps acquired the 27-year-old American from French club Le Havre via transfer, and have signed him to a contract through 2027 with a team option for 2028.
Sabbi started in 25 of his 49 appearances for Le Havre, scoring five goals and contributing an assist.
The five-foot-10, 160-pound athlete has represented the United States at the senior, U-23, U-20, and U-18 levels, and played 219 professional games in Europe, scoring 43 goals and 23 assists.
Whitecaps sporting director Axel Schuster says in a statement that Sabbi is “an experienced attacking player who has played in one of the best leagues in the world” and who will add another dimension to Vancouver’s attack.
The ‘Caps begin their season Feb. 20 when they visit Costa Rican side Saprissa in CONCACAF Champions League play. Vancouver begins its MLS campaign on Feb. 23 against the Timbers in Portland.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Feb. 11, 2025.
