Lucas Cavallini, who signed with Vancouver Whitecaps in December, had some interesting things to say at Media Day in Los Angeles on Friday.

"I liked everything, I really loved it, it was sad to leave because it was an incredible league where many doors opened to me, people have treated me and my family very well, it was a very nice experience and I hope one day I can return there," Cavallini said of former club Puebla FC.

"But the return of life is unknown and I will be grateful to Mexico and also to Puebla, a city where two of my three children were born. I will always take it to Mexico in my heart," he added.

"It was an easy decision, coming back home," Lucas Cavallini said of his decision to sign with Vancouver Whitecaps FC. "You've seen what I'm capable of doing and [I'm] willing to take those abilities to transmit that to the Whitecaps."

So, the Whitecaps have themselves a new centre forward. Let's look into that. It's being reported that the 'Caps paid Mexican side Puebla FC 4.62 million euro (3.95 million pounds, 6.7 million Canadian, and 5.13 million US, if you prefer) for the services of Argentine-Canadian Cavallini.
