Garissone Innocent: PSG Ex-Keeper Finds New Club in Canada | Mercato Update

After Lithuania, direction Canada for Garissone Innocent. Free since his departure from FK Riteriai, the 25-year-old goalkeeper, trained at PSG, has just found a base in the Canadian Premier League.

According to our information, he has signed with Atlético Ottawa, which is participating for the first time this season in the Concacaf Champions Cup after qualifying as Canadian champion. Coming from the same group of owners as Atlético Madrid, the North American club will challenge Nashville SC, a Major League Soccer (MLS) club, in the first round. The winner will then face Inter Miami.

In Ottawa, Garissone Innocent will work alongside Romuald Peiser, trained like him at PSG and who serves as goalkeeper coach. The two men are obviously not from the same generation. In Paris from 2015 to 2022, Innocent never played in the first team, but he was able to rub shoulders with Gianluigi Buffon, Alphonse Areola and even Keylor Navas in training or during certain trips. In recent years, he has also played in Caen, Vannes then Eupen in Belgium. He has two selections with the Haitian national team which will play in the next World Cup.
