.@SkySportDE reports that #VWFC have reached an agreement with Hamburger SV 🇩🇪 for their captain CB Sebastian Schonlau. He’s set to fly here for medicals on Wednesday. Fee is said to be in the low six-figure range, with the contract running until 2027. Via GlassCityFC on X

New favorite meal at #VWFC 🇩🇪

Sources 🚨 I can confirm that Joedrick Pupe is a candidate at the Vancouver Whitecaps. Far from a done deal though. There is interest but #VWFC are also looking at a couple other candidates. Club wants to sign a wing back and a defender this window. ⏳

Whitecaps CEO & Sporting Director Axel Schuster joined @JayJanower on @GlobalBC this morning and mentioned that Thomas Müller is expected to play about 30 minutes today at BC Place. Müller will also make his stadium entrance through fans at Terry Fox Plaza. #VWFC Via AsaRehman on X

.@sachatavolieri reports #VWFC have everything in place to sign CB Joedrick Pupe from Dender 🇧🇪. The 28 y/o is a natural left-footed defender, who can also play LB. Via GlassCityFC on X

PRO Ref Review agrees with the VAR decision, no PK in SJ vs #VWFC > After evaluating all the considerations, PRO would have preferred no penalty to be awarded on the field. proreferees.com/2025/08/16/2...

If the #VWFC were ever going to bring in a European Superstar, it feels like we picked the perfect player with Muller. Fits right in with the team's vibes.

#VWFC Coach Jesper Sorensen with an update on Brian White. “We have to figure (it) out. It wasn’t that bad, I think and we have to hope that he will be available. I can’t be that informative today because I don’t know much about tomorrow. It looked well with Brian.” #VANvHOU #MLS

#VWFC Coach Jesper Sorensen talking Thomas Müller. “He will be in the squad and he will be on the pitch. For how long, we’re going to find out, but it’s not (about) making stupid things here. Everybody’s excited, but we also have to be aware that we have to do the right thing.” #MLS

Sarpsborg Arbeiderblad reports that Utvik will return to Sarpsborg 08 🇳🇴 in January. He previously played for them from 2018 to 2023 before joining #VWFC in 2024. There was an agreement for him to move this window, but Veselinovic’s injury put a halt to the deal. Via GlassCityFC on X

Vindication for #VWFC and the Tim Ford disaster-class

📬 From MLS DisCo email: "Vancouver Whitecaps defender Édier Ocampo was fined for failing to leave the field in a timely manner in the 27th minute of Vancouver’s match against San Jose on Aug. 9" Just to rub salt into the wound. #VWFC

#VWFC’s Thomas Müller will have his first training session with his new Caps teammates on Friday. Müller will arrive in Vancouver on Wednesday and will be introduced to the press on Thursday. Via @harjournalist.bsky.social on X

Sounds like talks have failed for Cheng and #VWFC have moved on to other LB targets. Sandefjord were asking for a sizeable fee and the Caps are somewhat limited in what they can do given their salary cap constraints. Via GlassCityFC on X

PRO is looking into Tim Ford #VWFC

#VWFC Jesper Sorensen on Gauld “He needs to clear some stages where he trains together with the team and where he makes himself available and it’s not just being in training for two or three times. He needs to train for a while because he needs to be strong. It’s how he’s back, not when he’s back.”

#VWFC training on lovely sunny morning in Vancouver. Kenji Cabrera’s first training session. Ali Ahmed partial training. Cubas fully training. Sam Adekugbe working in the gym. Ryan Gauld running and working on drills on his own off to the side. Yohei Takaoka working in the gym today.

#VWFC Jay Janower has some words for MLS and Tim Ford

How all #VWFC supporters are feeling this week

Chatted with #VWFC GM Axel Schuster prior to tonight's San Jose/Vancouver game. Asked him about Ryan Gauld's return and he said the player is optimistic that he'll be back in the next four weeks. I suspect it's not the first time Caps fans have heard something like this, but that's the latest.

#VWFC captain sums this match up perfectly.

Sounds like the CB deal’s done and they’re close on the LB. I expect we’ll hear announcements on both in the next few weeks. #VWFC Via GlassCityFC on X

👀 #VWFC on X

Sørensen says that he’ll adjust his tactics to place Müller in his strongest XI. Have to think that’ll be a 4-2-3-1 with him playing behind White. #VWFC Via Sportsnet650 and and GlassCityFC on X

I expect we'll see #VWFC open the upper deck for Muller's debut on August 17th - It's looking pretty sold out!

Hearing #VWFC are targeting Sandefjord 🇳🇴 LB Christopher Cheng as a possible replacement for Adekugbe. Nothing done yet, but I’m told negotiations are active. Cheng currently has 4G 2A in the Norwegian top flight this season. Via GlassCityFC on X

Cabrera arrives tomorrow Müller arrives next Wednesday New ball-playing CB that I’m hearing about arrives … 👀 #VWFC Via GlassCityFC on X

Thomas Muller is the new #VWFC #13!

From Thomas Mueller and #VWFC on X - our new #13!

Was at Whitecaps training this morning, with the team back on the pitch after a well-deserved week off. Ali Ahmed was doing work on the side but is feeling good and hoping to be back very soon. Ryan Gauld was out on the pitch with his teammates but still TBC on his return though. #VWFC

Sources 🚨! Thomas Müller deal with the Vancouver Whitecaps is now ready to be signed by all parties. But don't expect an official announcement this week. The earliest announcement would be Monday morning, August 4. Either way, no problems between all parties. Müller will join #VWFC.
