Impact Dajome's role in the team diminished this season as he only tallied two goals and four assists in 28 MLS appearances (18 starts), the lowest goals total of his Whitecaps career. That is partly explained by the fact that he spent more time at wing-back than he did in the front three in 2022, but the 28-year-old will need to prove he can still be relied upon consistently heading into the next campaign.
