Plays Friday Piette (ear) played the second half of Friday's preseason match vs FC Slovan Liberec.

Impact Piette was able to get minutes in preseason Friday after undergoing ear surgery late last season. He is expected to be ready for the start of the season as a contender to start, given he stays healthy as he has a track record of inconsistency and injury the last few campaigns.

Impact Piette had to undergo surgery to end last season but appears to be on the mend, with the midfielder able to join the club's first training camp of the offseason. That said, he was only out due to ear surgery, with the midfielder expected to be fit by the start of the season.

The midfielder is expected to be back when the 2026 campaign kicks off, and should be available for a full training camp.

Out with ear injury Piette (ear) is ruled out for Saturday's clash with Nashville, per the MLS injury report.

Impact Piette isn't an option for Saturday's clash with Nashville due to a reported ear issue. He's been a consistent starter in defensive midfield, though Matthew Longstaff is a more than competent replacement. Piette will hope to return for the regular season finale against Cincinnati on Oct. 18.

Starting Saturday Piette (upper body) is in the initial lineup for Saturday's clash with St. Louis City.

Impact Piette will return from an injury that left him out of the previous five MLS matches, regaining his usual spot in central midfield. He has been involved mostly in defensive stats this year, with his average of 1.4 interceptions per game ranking first on the squad. His inclusion will cause Olger Escobar to be on the bench for the weekend duel.

Fully trains Piette (upper body) was back in full training Wednesday, according to Maxime Truman of DL Coulisses.

Impact Piette was running during training last week and has taken another step, with the midfielder now starting to train with the rest of his group.

Runs during training Piette (upper body) was viewed jogging in training Tuesday, according to Maxime Truamn of DL Coulisses.

Impact Piette is seeing an upgrade this week after not training at all last week, with the midfielder at least able to jog by himself Tuesday. This still leaves him a bit away from a return, likely needing at least another week. That said, he will need to train with the group before he makes a team sheet, likely to return following the international break.

Not training Thursday Piette wasn't present in training Thursday, per Maxime Truman.

Impact Piette wasn't available in training Thursday as he deals with an upper body issue. The club hasn't given an official update on his availability moving forward. He will hope to make his return Saturday, but without appearing in training it's unlikely he will be deemed fit enough for the clash with D.C. United.

Out Leagues Cup Piette (upper body) is out for Saturday's clash with Atlanta, per the MLS injury report.

Impact Piette won't be an option Saturday due to an upper body issue. He returned to action during the Leagues Cup break, but didn't come through unscathed. With Piette sidelined Saturday, Bryce Duke could be pushed back into holding midfield. It's unclear who will partner Victor Loturi in the center of the park, though a change of formation is possible too.

Back in Leagues Cup play Piette (undisclosed) played half an hour in Tuesday's victory against Club Leon in Leagues Cup, confirming his return from injury.

Impact Piette was forced off in the first half of the game against Chicago due to injury and missed the last contest against New England because of the issue. In the end, the issue was only minor since he already made his comeback on Tuesday and featured for half an hour against Club Leon in the first Leagues Cup game. This is good news for Montreal since the midfielder is an undisputed starter and will regain his spot in the upcoming games.

Finds training field Piette (undisclosed) was involved in individual training Tuesday, according to Maxime Truman of DL Coulisses.

Impact Piette was forced off in the club's last outing but is already on the mend, as he was able to train by himself Tuesday. However, this still leaves him in question for Friday's match, needing to train with the team before he is confirmed fit. That said, he could return Friday or be hed out until after the break when they face Atlanta on August 9.

JULY 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Forced off Saturday Piette subbed off with an undisclosed issue in the first half of Saturday's match against Chicago Fire.

Impact Piette lasted 16 minutes on the field before being replaced by Caden Clark in his eighth consecutive league start. The defensive midfielder is now questionable for future contests, with his potential absence representing a considerable blow to a struggling Montreal side.

Recovers in time Piette (illness) recorded one cross (zero accurate) and two tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Orlando City SC.

Impact Piette was able to recover from a minor illness, retaining his start in the midfield. In 19 appearances, he is averaging about 2.1 clearances a game, while also totaling 29 interceptions and 29 tackles (18 won).

JULY 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up illness Piette is questionable for Saturday's match against Orlando due to an illness, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Piette is going to be a late call and likely needs to pass some testing to be an option Saturday, with the midfielder dealing with an illness. This could be a tough loss for the club, as he is a regular starter in the middle. Bryce Duke or Fabian Herbers (thigh) could be replacements if left out.

JULY 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Defensive lynchpin in draw Piette generated four tackles (three won), two clearances and three interceptions in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Orlando City SC.

Impact Piette was a stifling presence Saturday, leading the Montreal defensive effort with four tackles (three won) and three interceptions as they held on for a 0-0 draw versus Orlando. After a three-match absence due to a hamstring injury, the holding midfielder has made four successive appearances (three starts).

APRIL 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Saturday Piette (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Nashville.

Impact Piette will look to make his second MLS appearance of the campaign after being out for three weeks due to the issue. The central midfielder should be a source of passes and defensive production if he's available for meaningful playing time. In that case, he'll be an alternative to Saturday's starters Nathan Saliba and Victor Loturi.

Trains some Wednesday Piette (hamstring) trained partially Wednesday ahead o Saturday's match against D.C. United, according to Maxime Truman of DL Coulisses.

Impact Piette has been given a somewhat positive update Wednesday, with the midfielder working in part with the group. This will leave him questionable moving forward, likely needing to see a session of full group training before he is considered anywhere near fit.

MARCH 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with hamstring injury Piette is dealing with a hamstring injury and is expected to be out for the time being, Maxime Truman of Dans Les Coulisses reports.

Impact Even though the report indicated Montreal doesn't have any long-term concerns with the injury, Piette is expected to miss, at least, a few games while rehabbing. He hasn't trained with the team in the last 10 days and doesn't have a clear timetable for his return to action.

Not spotted in training Thursday Piette (undisclosed) wasn't present in Thursday's training session and might not be available to face Minnesota United on Saturday, Maxime Truman of DansLesCoulisses reports.

Impact Piette started and logged 86 minutes in the season opener against Atlanta United last Saturday, but he hasn't trained all week long, so it seems he'll face an uphill battle to even make the bench against the Loons. If he's unable to play Saturday, then Bryce Duke could enter the starting XI in midfield.
