“Jules-Anthony is a promising forward from Quebec. He has interesting physical attributions in addition to good pace, despite his height (6-foot-2),” Montreal chief sporting officer Olivier Renard said. “We will help further his development and continue his progress with us. We welcome him to his hometown club.”
Vilsaint, who has dual citizenship with Canada and Haiti, played for Panellinios Montreal FC before heading to Europe in 2020.
