The Vancouver Whitecaps have signed forward Atiba Harris to a contract extension.
The 26-year-old scored a pair of goals in five starts last season before a season-ending knee injury.
''Atiba is an experienced MLS player that does a lot of the little things right,'' Whitecaps coach Martin Rennie said in a statement. ''He is athletic, has a great work rate, holds the ball well, and forces defenders to make mistakes.''
Rennie expects Harris will be ready to participate in January's preseason training camp.
