Ryan Gauld - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Impact Gauld finished from Emmanuel Sabbi's cross to level the match early in the second half, adding to a creative performance that led the match in chances created. His four goals and 37 chances created across 16 matches this season reflect how central he is to Vancouver's attack, with his one assist being a significant underrepresentation of his creative output. His next fixture against Colorado, who sit ninth in the Western Conference, presents a favorable opportunity to continue that form.

Ryan Gauld, Yadaly Diaby score in second half to rally Whitecaps to 2-1 victory over Austin

Available Saturday Gauld has returned to full training with the first team after sitting out Wednesday's session with a lower body tweak and does not appear on the injury report.

Impact Gauld missed Wednesday's training due to a lower-body tweak but has since completed a full session with the first team and is not included on the injury report. The captain remains an important part of Vancouver's setup and had been expected to move back into the starting lineup on the right wing with Yadaly Diaby unavailable on international duty,

Misses Wednesday training Gauld sat out training Wednesday with a lower body tweak, according to coach Jesper Sorensen said, per Har Journalist.

Impact Gauld missed Wednesday's training session with what coach Jesper Sorensen described as a lower-body tweak, putting his availability for Saturday's home fixture against D.C. United into question. The captain had come off the bench in the defeat at Real Salt Lake on Sept. 19 and was expected to move back into the starting lineup with Yadaly Diaby away on international duty. The issue does not appear to represent a significant setback based on Sorensen's wording, and with several days remaining before kickoff, Gauld's participation in the remaining sessions should provide a clearer indication of whether he can play.

Assists bit misses penalty Gauld assisted once to go with four shots (one on goal), 10 crosses (three accurate) and six corners in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Austin FC.

Impact Gauld assisted Brian White for the Whitecaps' only goal in the 2-1 defeat to Austin. This goal brought it back to 1-1, but Gauld had previously had an opportunity to level it earlier from the penalty spot, but he hit the woodwork. The 30-year-old has only managed seven starts so far this season. This was his first assist of the year, only scoring three. He has had a goal involvement in each of the last two matches.

Scores in return to starting lineup Gauld scored one goal to go with five shots (four on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 3-0 victory versus Los Angeles Galaxy.

Impact Gauld was on fire in this match, scoring while putting most of his shots on target. He's likely to get a goal or two if he maintains that level of accuracy against Austin FC, a side which has given up 43 goals in MLS play this season.

Five crosses in away victory Gauld had two shots (zero on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Gauld helped his side to a 3-0 victory as he took five crosses of which three were successful and three corners. In the seven games since returning to action, he has scored two goals, both coming in the same game and has already become the joint highest set piece taker of the season.

AUGUST 31 • ROTOWIRE

Misses out on goal or assist Gauld registered two shots (one on goal), nine crosses (three accurate) and eight corners in Saturday's 5-0 victory versus FC Dallas.

Impact Gauld did just about everything despite not scoring or assist on any of Vancouver's five goals. He was a service machine while also putting up a couple shots, and he should come away with more if he puts up similar production numbers against Sporting Kansas City. Sporting KC has allowed a whopping 49 goals across 20 MLS matches this season.

Impact Gauld was Vancouver's most active creative presence, delivering eight corners and 12 crosses, though just two found a teammate, while firing three shots without forcing a save from Hugo Lloris in an otherwise dominant Whitecaps performance. He also picked up a late yellow card and remained Vancouver's go-to threat from dead-ball situations throughout the match. Gauld has produced two goals, nine shots, two chances created and 11 corners in three appearances since returning from his long-term injury, steadily rebuilding his rhythm and momentum as he works his way back to his best as a DP.

Impact Gauld's multi-goal return is exactly the kind of performance Vancouver hoped for after his lengthy knee injury layoff, and it marks his first multi-goal game since the 2024 MLS Cup Playoffs. He tallied at least 17 goal contributions in three straight seasons before the injury derailed him, and this showing suggests he could quickly return to that level of production as Vancouver looks to build on its position atop the Western Conference.

Impact Gauld's return marks his first game action since being sidelined for the opening months of the calendar year, and the managed approach suggests Vancouver is being cautious rather than rushing him back to a full workload. He is expected to regain his spot as an undisputed starter once he builds up to full match fitness, giving the Whitecaps attack a significant boost once he is ready for a complete 90 minutes. Until then, expect his minutes to be gradually increased over the coming matches as he continues working toward a return to the regular lineup.

Impact Gauld is now targeting a return after the World Cup break after seeing no action over the first five months of the calendar year. His eventual comeback could strengthen a Whitecaps attack that is now without Emmanuel Sabbi (groin) and may turn to Kenji Cabrera and Cheikh Tidiane Sabaly on the wings in the short term.

Increases workload Gauld (knee) took part in more than partial training during Monday's session, Har Journalist of Equalizer Soccer reports.

Impact Gauld appears to be close to returning to normal work, though he has missed all MLS action in 2026 so far and may not see significant action before the World Cup break. The attacker will aim to add a solid option in the rotation for the final half of the season, eventually challenging Cheikh Tidiane Sabaly, Thomas Muller and Emmanuel Sabbi for playing time.

Integrates to partial training Gauld (knee) has begun partial training with Vancouver on Friday, per Har Journalist of the Daily Hive Vancouver.

Impact Gauld is very close to making a return to the pitch as he starts partial training with the team. A return Saturday is not out of of the question, but it does seem close since the midfielder just started training. A realistic return can be later in the month, with the last match before the World Cup brake on May 23 vs San Diego.
