Sahil Sandhu (born 5 January 1991) is a Canadian former professional soccer player who played as a defender.
Born in Amritsar, Punjab in India, Sandhu started his career with the Vancouver Whitecaps FC Residency program after moving to Canada as a child.[1] He was a part of the 2004 Whitecaps FC Residency team that won the Super Y-League.[2] He scored the winning goal in the championship final against Schulz Academy.[2] A couple years later, in 2007, Sandhu was awarded the B.C.

In 2009, Sandhu was loaned out to the youth academy at Energie Cottbus.[3] After spending time with Energie Cottbus, Sandhu played in the USL PDL with the Victoria Highlanders.[3]
Sandhu eventually left the Whitecaps FC Residency and attended Douglas College where he went on to represent the Royals.[2] While playing with the Royals, Sandhu also played for ICST Pegasus of the Vancouver Metro Soccer League where in 2014 he went to score twelve goals during the season.[2]
On 25 March 2015, Sandhu returned to the Whitecaps FC organization when he signed for Whitecaps FC 2, the Vancouver Whitecaps FC reserve team in the United Soccer League.[3] He made his debut for the team four days later on 29 March 2015 against the Seattle Sounders FC 2.
