Thomas Müller is expected to land in Vancouver soon, and when he does, he'll do so as the highest-paid player in Whitecaps history.

Now, according to Give Me Sport, the Whitecaps are finalizing a deal to sign Müller. This comes following an earlier report on by Manuel Veth from Transfermarkt, who stated that the Whitecaps had come to a preliminary agreement with FC Cincinnati for the discovery rights.

The list of true international star players who have chosen to play for the Vancouver Whitecaps, no matter the league they’ve been in, over the 51 years of professional soccer in this town is not very long.
