Vancouver Whitecaps MLS Team Officially Listed for Sale

Ownership group, including Greg Kerfoot and Steve Nash, seeks buyer committed to keeping the team in Vancouver.

  • The Vancouver Whitecaps, valued at $470 million by Sportico in January, are officially up for sale, with Goldman Sachs overseeing the process.
  • Majority owner Greg Kerfoot, along with Steve Nash, Jeff Mallett, and Steve Luczo, cited estate planning and the need for new resources as reasons for the sale.
  • The team finished the 2024 MLS season with a 13-13-8 record, making the playoffs but losing in the first round to LAFC; head coach Vanni Sartini was dismissed afterward.
  • The Whitecaps' lease at BC Place expires after the 2025 season, making the stadium agreement a key issue for prospective buyers.
  • The ownership group emphasized finding a buyer who will retain the team in Vancouver and help the club achieve its competitive potential.
