CF Montreal acquired Italian forward Giacomo Vrioni from the New England Revolution on Tuesday.
In exchange, the Revs received $50,000 in 2025 general allocation money. New England also retained a portion of his salary and a percentage of any future sale.
Vrioni, 26, tallied 16 goals and three assists in 67 MLS matches (41 starts) with New England from 2022-24.
“Giacomo is a class act on and off the field,” Revs sporting director Curt Onalfo said. “We thank Giacomo for his contributions during his three seasons with our club and wish him all the best with CF Montreal.”
His departure frees up a designated player opening on New England’s roster.
“We are thrilled to welcome Giacomo, a talented left-footed striker, who is renowned for his finishing ability and effectiveness in front of goal both in MLS and in Europe,” Montreal president and CEO Gabriel Gervais said. “He is a player who is dynamic in his off the ball movements, excels at getting behind the opponents’ backline, and creates chances through passing combinations with his teammates.”
Vrioni played for multiple clubs in Europe before coming to MLS, including Italy’s Juventus and Austria’s WSG Tirol.
