Whitecaps sporting director Axel Schuster expressed his joy regarding the signing: โRichie is a winner, competitor, leader and has proven to be one of the best fullbacks in our league. Since the end of 2021, he has played in every single national team game, including all three World Cup games. We are very pleased to welcome Richie, Melanie and their son Elijah, to our family”.
The Canada international signed for Nottingham Forest a year ago but struggled to acquire the right amount of playing time.ย
