CF Montreal announced on Tuesday that defender Luca Petrasso has signed a new contract extending his stay with the MLS club until the conclusion of the 2028‑2029 season, with an additional club option for the 2029‑2030 campaign. The 26‑year‑old midfielder‑turned‑defender will remain part of the roster through at least the end of next year’s season.
The agreement was disclosed by the club in a statement released from its headquarters in Montreal, Quebec. The contract renewal adds several years to Petrasso’s existing deal, which originally began when he joined the senior squad after progressing through the club’s academy system.
Petrasso, who has featured regularly in the back line since breaking into the first team, is expected to provide depth and experience as the club prepares for upcoming MLS fixtures and potential playoff contention. His versatility in playing both central and wide defensive positions has been cited by coaching staff as a factor in the decision to secure his services for the longer term.
The extension aligns with CF Montreal’s broader strategy of retaining home‑grown talent and maintaining continuity within the squad. The club has a history of periodically reviewing and updating player contracts to ensure stability and competitive balance.
The new contract runs through the end of the 2028‑2029 MLS season, and includes an option that could keep Petrasso on the roster for the 2029‑2030 season should both parties agree to activate it. No financial details were disclosed.
The announcement comes as CF Montreal continues to shape its roster ahead of the next campaign, with the organization planning further moves in the transfer market and youth development pipelines.
