The Vancouver Whitecaps have made Mustapha Alasan Jarju the first African DP in MLS history. As per MLS policy terms of his contract were not released, but his cap hit for 2011 will be $167,500.
He was out of contract in Belgium where he played last season for RAEC Mons in the second tier. He scored 21 goals.
CSN asked the Whitecaps to clarify whether Mustapha would be a DP for the duration of the contract, or whether signing bonuses pushed him into DP status for 2011 only. As of this writing the club has not responded.
