The Vancouver Whitecaps announced that they have re-signed leading goal-scorer Camilo Sanvezzo to a new contract after a stellar 2011 season. Per club and league policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“We’re delighted to agree to new contract terms with Camilo,” said Whitecaps FC head coach Martin Rennie. “He had an outstanding first season with us and will be an important part of our squad for years to come. Camilo can play up front as a striker or as a wide attacking midfielder. He’s got plenty of pace and skill, plus a real nose for goal. He’s also a big threat on set-pieces in and around the opposition’s penalty box.”
Camilo, 23, was originally a trial signing that went on to win the team's Player of the Year award in his first season with the team.
“I am very happy to sign this new contract with Whitecaps FC,” said Camilo. “I am really enjoying my time in Vancouver and the support of the Whitecaps FC fans. I aim to build on all that I achieved last season and help Whitecaps FC become a top club in MLS and the CONCACAF region.”
Joined by Eric Hassli and recently aquired Sebastien Le Toux, Camilo makes three players on the Whitecaps roster to score 10 or more goals in 2011, a team-high in MLS last season.
