Vancouver FC announced the signing of free agent centre back Rocco Romeo today, ahead of the club's inaugural 2023 campaign in the Canadian Premier League.

Romeo became the club's sixth ever signing.

The 22-year old native of Toronto most recently represented Valour FC, having initially joined the club on loan from Toronto FC in 2021, before making the move permanent last year.

"I am grateful to Afshin [Ghotbi] and Rob [Friend] for their faith in me, as I begin this new chapter of my career in the Canadian Premier League with Vancouver FC," said Romeo.
