 Stone Sports Management LLC (Columbus, Ohio) - January 5, 2017

Stone Sports Management ("SSM") is pleased to announce that Canadian National Team Defender Wandrille Lefèvre has signed his second professional contract with Major League Soccer and the Montreal Impact.  The Eastern Conference Finalists secured Lefèvre for the 2017 and 2018 seasons with two one-year Options. The 27-year old Montreal native initially signed with the Impact from the Impact Academy ahead of the 2013 MLS season and increased his role each season and helped the Impact to the CONCACAF Finals, two Amway Canadian Championships and three MLS Playoff appearances.  Lefèvre has played in over 60 games across all competitions, and his play was recognized by the Canadian National Team, which selected him once eligibile in December 2015 and will be participating in the January 2017 National Team Camp. 

The Impact now return all five players who played at the Central Defender position from the 2016 side that made it the furthest in the MLS Playoffs. Despite European offers, Lefèvre elected to stay with his hometown club to help build upon the club's progress and hopes to help the team achieve greater results in 2017 and beyond. "I am very excited to be back in Montreal," added Lefèvre. "This is my home. My relation with the supporters and the implications that I have with the city, since I arrived, were at the center of my decision to continue this adventure here.”

"Wandrille has proven to be a capable MLS player and has increased his responsibilities on and off the field for the Impact these last couple of years," remarked SSM's President and USSF Licensed Intermediary Justin B. Stone. "Being out of contract after the 2016 season and possessing a European Passport, Wandrille had several options to choose from and elected to sacrifice money in order to stay with his local club. He is an exceptional person who the Impact and Montreal community will benefit having for these next two years and beyond. I look forward to him continuing his progression with the Impact and extremely happy for him."
