Pierre Lamothe (born September 18, 1997) is a Canadian professional soccer player who plays as a midfielder.

Early life

[edit]

Pierre Lamothe was born in Greenfield Park, Quebec to a Canadian father and a Vietnamese mother from Huế.[1] He began playing youth soccer at age four with local club CS Longueuil.[2][3] In September 2011, he joined the Montreal Impact Academy, when it was founded.[4] He played for Quebec provincial team at the U14 and U15 levels.[5]

University career

[edit]

In 2018, he began attending the Université de Montréal, where he played for the men's soccer team.[6] In December 2018, he received a scholarship from the Foundation for Athlete Excellence.[7] He won the U Sports men's soccer championship in 2018, finishing as runner-ups in 2019.[8] In the 2019 final of the national championship, he was named player of the game, in their loss to the UQTR Patriotes.[9] In 2018, he was named RSEQ Rookie of the Year and was named to the All-Rookie Team,[10] as well as being named to the U Sports national All-Rookie Team.[11] He was named an RSEQ First Team All-Star in both 2018 and 2019.[12] He was named to the U Sports All-Tournament Team in 2019.[13]

Club career

[edit]

In July 2016, he joined the Impact's second team, FC Montreal in the USL, on an academy contract.[14] After the season, he had a trial with the reserve side of French club FC Lorient.[15]

In 2017, he returned to his former youth club CS Longueuil, joining the senior team in the Première ligue de soccer du Québec.[16] In 2019, he was named team captain.[17] During this time he also played club futsal with Longueuil and 2019 Canadian Futsal Championship finalists Sporting Montreal.[16][18]

Ahead of the 2020 season, he sought to sign with a Canadian Premier League club,[19] however, he ultimately joined fellow PLSQ side AS Blainville.[17] He made only one appearance that season, which was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as he suffered an injury.[20][21]

In January 2021, he joined HFX Wanderers FC in the Canadian Premier League on a one-year contract, with a club option for 2022.[22][23][24] Lamothe scored his first goal for the Wanderers on July 24, 2021 against Valour FC, netting the only goal in a 1-0 victory.[25][26][27] In January 2022, HFX announced they had exercised Lamothe's contract option, keeping him with the side through the 2022 season.[28] In August 2022, he scored two goals in back-to-back games, including a highlight reel goal on August 20 to give the Wanderers a 1-0 victory over Pacific FC.[29][30] After two seasons with the team, he departed the club after the 2022 season.[31] Over his two seasons with the club, he scored three goals and added two assists in 48 appearances, across all competitions.[32][33]

In November 2022, he signed a contract with Pacific FC for the 2023 season.[34][35] In January 2023, he trained with Vietnamese V.League 1 club SHB Da Nang, playing in the 2023 Thien Long Cup Friendly Tournament.[1] In September 2023, he was loaned to Vietnamese club Ho Chi Minh City of the V.League 1 until March 2024.[36][37][38] However, Lamothe was released by Ho Chi Minh City before the season, as they filled their foreign player and Vietnamese origin player spots and had no remaining roster space.[39] On October 6, 2023, Lamothe joined fellow V.League 1 club Quảng Nam.[40] He then returned to Pacific for the 2024 season, after which he departed the club at the end of the season.[41]

International career

[edit]

In September 2015, Lamothe participated in a development camp for the Canadian U20 team led by Rob Gale.[2]

In 2017, he was named to the Quebec U20 team for the 2017 Jeux de la Francophonie.[42][43]
