Available following international duty Ocampo is absent from Vancouver Whitecaps' latest injury report ahead of Saturday's MLS meeting with LAFC, indicating he is available for selection following his international call...

Impact Ocampo returns to contention after receiving his first senior international call-up with Colombia, which affected his availability during Vancouver's recent league fixtures. The right-back has established himself as a regular starter this season, contributing two goals, one assist, 52 tackles, 39 clearances and 25 interceptions across 23 MLS appearances, including 21 starts. His availability gives Vancouver the opportunity to restore its usual defensive setup against LAFC, with Ocampo expected to compete for a place in the starting lineup.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Linking up with Colombia Ocampo has been called up by the Colombian national team for the upcoming international window between September and October.

Impact Ocampo has been called up by Los Cafeteros for the first time in his career, and this responds to a strong 2026 MLS season in which he's notched two goals, one assist, 52 tackles, 39 clearances and 25 interceptions across 23 appearances (21 starts). Colombia will play three matches during the break, so the right-back will miss the Sept. 26 match against D.C. United, and he's also a candidate to miss the trip to Chicago on Sept. 6 since Colombia also play that day. In that scenario, he'd be eligible to return against LAFC on Saturday, Oct. 10.

Starting against Galaxy Ocampo (concussion) is in the starting lineup for the midweek contest versus Los Angeles Galaxy.

Impact Ocampo cleared the concussion protocol after being sidelined for one game, and he should now be able to rack up significant minutes on the field in his usual right-back position. His inclusion from kickoff pushes Mihail Gherasimencov back to a place among the substitutes, which is likely to remain the case in upcoming matches. The Colombian will attempt to raise his season tallies of two goals and one assist but may be more reliable for his average of 2.3 tackles per game.

Subbed off with concussion Ocampo was subbed off at halftime of Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Montreal in the Canadian Championship due to concussion protocols, according to Har Journalist.

Impact Ocampo had been in strong form recently, scoring a goal and adding an assist in the 5-0 win over Dallas, continuing a productive stretch in Vancouver's XI. Mihail Gherasimencov could replace him if he is forced to miss time, and further clarity on Ocampo's status should emerge as the club continues assessing him through the concussion protocol.

Logs goal, assist in win Ocampo scored one goal and assisted once from four shots and one chance created in Saturday's 5-0 win against FC Dallas.

Impact Ocampo got in on the action in a five-goal avalanche, tallying one himself while assisting on another. The midfielder is set up to replicate this type of effort in the next match against Sporting Kansas City, a side which has conceded 49 goals across 20 MLS matches this season.

Impact Ocampo missed his first match of the season due to a suspension for yellow-card accumulation.

Impact Ocampo's absence opens the door for Ranko Veselinovic to likely step in at right back for that fixture. The suspension is a minor disruption to Vancouver's back line, and Ocampo should be available to regain his regular role once the one match ban is served against LAFC on Aug. 1.

Ocampo is only one goal short of tying last season's two-goal tally, which he logged across 35 appearances.

Impact Ocampo was busy up and down the flanks throughout Saturday's win, his single shot was lackluster, but he had some dangerous crosses and was solid defensively. Ocampo remains a huge part of the starting XI and should be crucial as Vancouver look to pull off a deep run in the playoffs.

Impact Ocampo has been handed another suspension, but this time for yellow card accumulation. He did get a goal Saturday for just his second of the season.
