FC Supra du Québec announced on Friday that the club has signed Canadian right-back Zachary Brault-Guillard on a contract through 2026, pending the receipt of an International Transfer Certificate.
Brault-Guillard, a 27-year-old born in Haiti but raised in Montreal, arrives in the Canadian Premier League after playing the last two seasons with FC Lugano in Switzerland's top flight.
The dynamic right-back — a product of the renowned Olympique Lyonnais academy in France — has significant experience for both club and country. He played over 100 matches in Major League Soccer for CF Montréal between 2019 and 2023, lifting the Voyageurs Cup after winning the 2019 and 2021 Canadian Championships. In the 2019 edition, Brault-Guillard was named the Best Young Canadian Player.
Brault-Guillard then went on to play 47 times for Lugano, including in UEFA Europa League and Conference League qualifying.
On the international stage, Brault-Guillard has eight caps for the Canadian men's national team. He made his debut in 2018 against Dominica, and was part of the squad for the 2019 and 2023 Concacaf Gold Cup tournaments.
Brault-Guillard played a role in Canada's successful 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifying campaign, scoring his first international goal in a qualifier against Aruba.
“Bringing a player like Zachary to FC Supra is significant for our club and sends a clear message that we are here to compete,” said FC Supra president Rocco Placentino.
“He grew up in Montreal, has represented Canada and has built an impressive career here and in Europe. He understands Quebec soccer and what the game means to this community. We’re proud that he has chosen to come home and be part of what we are building at FC Supra.”
Brault-Guillard will be eligible to play for Supra once his ITC is approved. He will join the club for the remainder of the CPL season as they make a push for the playoffs.
