Cabral, 26, tallied seven goals and four assists in 68 MLS matches since joining the Rapids in 2023. None of those goal contributions came this season in 770 minutes across 18 games (10 starts). 'We are grateful to Kevin for his professionalism and efforts throughout his time with the Rapids,' Rapids president Padraig Smith said. 'We thank him for his contributions both on and off the field and wish him the very best in the next chapter of his career.' Cabral has 13 goals and four assists in 129 career MLS matches (89 starts) with the Los Angeles Galaxy (2021-22) and Colorado. --CF Montreal transferred defender George Campbell to English second-division side West Bromwich Albion. The 24-year-old U.S. international registered one goal and four assists in 70 matches (61 starts) with Montreal since 2023.

Whitecaps captain Ryan Gauld doesn't want to rush return from injury
VANCOUVER - Being back on the pitch doing some light training is a step forward for Ryan Gauld, but the Vancouver Whitecaps midfielder isn't rushing his return to playing. The 29-year-old from Aberdeen, Scotland, has been sidelined since March 8 with a knee capsule sprain. He was greeted with cheers from some of his teammates when he stepped on the field for a practice this week. 'It's nice to have the boots back on, be outside,' said Gauld. 'I still got a long ways to go, but it's a step forward.' Gauld was hurt in a March 8 game against CF Montreal. His recovery has been slower than expected and he doesn't want to hurry his return. 'I've got in my head how I hope things go, what it looks like, but there's no point getting too stressed on it,' said the Whitecaps captain who had a career-high 17 goals and led the team with 16 assists in 37 starts and 41 appearances across all competitions last season. 'I've got a timeline in my head but I don't want to get ahead of myself. I've got to make sure I come back at 100 per cent and don't suffer any more setbacks.' Two players who will be in the lineup Saturday when the Whitecaps visit the Colorado Rapids in a Major League Soccer match are midfielder Sebastain Berhalter and forward Brian White. The two MLS all-stars had been playing with the United States at the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup. 'It's great just seeing the guys again and being back in this environment,' said Berhalter. 'I realized how much I love playing with these guys.' The Whitecaps (11-4-5) and Rapids (7-10-5) are both looking to shake themselves out of a losing skid. The Whitecaps head into the weekend second in the MLS Western Conference with 38 points but are 2-3-1 in their last five league games. Vancouver needed a goal in the 90th minute Wednesday night to beat Winnipeg-based Canadian Premier League side Valour 2-1 to win their Telus Canadian Championship quarterfinal. Colorado sits 10th in the West, tied with two other teams with 26 points. The Rapids are 1-5-1 in the last seven games and have been held scoreless four times in that stretch. Whitecaps head coach Jesper Sorensen said playing at altitude and expected heat will be a challenge for his team. 'The conditions will be a little different than we are used to,' he said. 'Colorado is a good team, they have some good players that can change the game on their own. 'We have to be ready for whatever faces us.' The Whitecaps play their next three games on the road. After Saturday they travel to Houston on Wednesday, then San Diego July 19. 'It's a tough stretch of away games against good teams,' said White. 'Everyone is going to be locked in, switched on. Hopefully you can come away with as many points as possible.' Sorensen said having Berhalter and White back in the lineup will make a difference for team chemistry. 'It's been a little bit frustrating because we haven't had them the entire time,' he said. As for when Gauld might return, Sorensen urged patience. 'It's not important for me when he's back, it's important for me how he's back,' he said. 'It's very important he has gained the strength he needs to play. It very important that he comes back strong.' White said it was good to see his friend practising. 'It's been difficult not being able to have him out here,' said White, who leads the Whitecaps with 15 goals in all competitions. 'You miss a player like Ryan, his quality, the leadership, what he can bring to the team.' —- VANCOUVER WHITECAPS (11-4-5) at COLORADO RAPIDS (7-10-5) Dick's Sporting Goods Park, Saturday, 6:30 p.m. PDT SHARING THE LOAD: With the winning goal in Wednesday's Canadian Championship game against Valour, Bjorn Inge Utvik became the 19th Whitecap to score across all competitions this season. LENDING A HAND: Defender Ranko Veselinovic became the 17th Whitecap to earn an assist this season on Wednesday. OFF THE PITCH: Forward Jayden Nelson will miss the game after receiving a second yellow card in stoppage time for kicking the ball into the stands in frustration during Vancouver's 3-0 loss to the L.A. Galaxy July 4. SICK BAY: Midfielder Ali Ahmed (sprained ankle) expected return to play in six to eight weeks. Midfielder Andrés Cubas (sprained ankle) expected to return in one to two weeks. Defender Giuseppe Bovalina (illness) day-to-day LAST MEETING: The Whitecaps defeated the Rapids 2-0 at BC Place Stadium April 5. GOALS AGAINST: The 22 goals Vancouver has allowed in MLS play is tied for second least in the league and best in the Western Conference. Philadelphia has allowed 21 goals while New York City has also given up 22. NEED A STOP: The Whitecaps have been outscored 10-4 over their last three MLS losses. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 11, 2025.

Jordan Morris' return gives Sounders more firepower vs. Rapids
(Photo credit: Isaiah J. Downing-Imagn Images) With Jordan Morris back in the lineup, the Seattle Sounders' attack looks much more dangerous. Morris scored 15 minutes into his first start since March 1 on Saturday, leading the Sounders to a 3-2 victory at Sporting Kansas City. It was Morris' 100th goal contribution in his MLS career. The Sounders (9-6-6, 33 points) have gone undefeated (2-0-1) since participating in the Club World Cup and will look to continue that streak when they play host to the Colorado Rapids (8-10-5, 29 points) on Wednesday night. Albert Rusnak and Jesus Ferreira also scored first-half goals for the Sounders, who held on despite allowing Sporting Kansas City to convert a pair of penalty kicks after intermission. 'Jesus and I have talked a lot about how we've been bummed we haven't been able to play together this year,' said Morris, who has been sidelined by a pair of hamstring injuries. 'His vision is incredible. To have a guy like that on the right side and Albert (Rusnak) on the left, it's just so dangerous for us as a team. It was hard to watch some of those games because we were creating so many chances, I just wanted to be out on the field playing with those guys.' The Rapids snapped a three-match winless streak with a 3-0 victory against visiting Vancouver on Saturday. Rafael Navarro, Calvin Harris, and Andreas Maxs scored for Colorado with Djordje Mihailovic assisting on all three goals. Goalkeeper Zack Steffen, who had been sidelined since May 14 after surgery on his right knee, made two saves in posting the shutout. 'We attacked, we defended, we moved the ball, we played some entertaining, energetic football,' said Rapids coach Chris Armas. 'For me, around the world, that's the benchmark. 'We'll have a quick turnaround and get ready for Seattle.' The Western Conference rivals played to a 1-1 draw on April 26 in Commerce City, Colo., with Danny Musovski scoring for Seattle and Mihailovic answering for the Rapids.

Rapids dominate slumping Whitecaps in shutout fashion
(Photo credit: Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images) Rafael Navarro scored his team lead-tying eighth goal of the season and Djordje Mihailovic had three assists to lift the Colorado Rapids to a 3-0 home victory over the suddenly sliding Vancouver Whitecaps on Saturday night. Calvin Harris scored early in the first half and Andreas Maxso found the net early in the second for the Rapids (8-10-6, 30 points), who scored three or more goals for the first time in 14 league matches, a stretch that extends back to mid-April. Potential U.S. men's national team World Cup goalkeeper Zack Steffen kept his fourth clean sheet and Colorado's seventh in his first start since May 14. He was forced to miss the Gold Cup with the USMNT in June and July to undergo right meniscus surgery. Vancouver's Yohei Takaoka saved a late first-half penalty kick to prevent Navarro's second goal of the night. But that was the only real promising moment for the Whitecaps (11-5-5, 38 points), who have now lost four out of five after suffering just one defeat in their first 16 MLS games. Vancouver's American internationals Brian White and Sebastian Berhalter returned to MLS action from Gold Cup duty, but could not offer a boost for a side that slid down to third in the Western Conference table. Harris opened the scoring in the 12th minute when Ted Ku-DiPietro's incisive diagonal pass found Mihailovic in the left side of the penalty area. Rather than take the shot, Mihailovic composed himself and played the square pass to his open teammate, who beat Takaoka to the bottom right corner. Navarro scored his goal 18 minutes later. This time it was a sweeping move down the right before Mihailovic curled in an outswinging cross. The Brazilian striker reached out his right leg and poked it out of the air and inside the right post. Navarro then grabbed the ball just before halftime after Berhalter's foul gave the Rapids a chance to extend their lead from the spot, a surprise since Mihailovic had attempted all but one of Colorado's previous six penalties. Takaoka stood his ground then dove left to make the save and, for the moment, keep his team in the match. But the Vancouver keeper should've done better on the Rapids' third, when he failed to stop Maxso's downward header off Mihailovic's corner kick in the 60th minute. --Field Level Media
