Camilo Sanvezzo

Camilo da Silva Sanvezzo (born 21 July 1988) is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a forward.

[8] Camilo was named as the Whitecaps FC Player of the Year for his contributions to the team during the 2011 season, including a team-high 12 goals and consistency on the field.

[13] Additionally, Camilo closed the 2013 season with a hat-trick at home against Colorado Rapids to win the MLS scoring race with 22 goals.

[20] Fan reaction was split, with anger directed both at Camilo and the Whitecaps front office for how the situation was handled.

[citation needed] On 15 April 2016, after more than seven months injured, Camilo returned in a home match where Querétaro defeated Club América 1–0.

On 28 April 2019, Camilo scored his final goal as well as providing an assist to then teammate Ayron del Valle in 2–1 home win against Veracruz.

Camilo applied for permanent residency but had to wait to gain full citizenship before he could appear for the Canada national team, a process that Ghana-born former Whitecaps teammate Gershon Koffie was already undertaking.

About the prospect, Camilo stated, "Vancouver is a good city, Canada is a beautiful country and if I get the opportunity I will decide with my family.
