Eduardo Sebrango, one of the Montreal Impact\u2019s best forwards and players in the history of the club, announced his retirement on Monday at the Saputo stadium. Sebrango is the second-leading scorer in Impact history behind Mauro Biello with 45 goals.<\/p>\n
“It’s a very sad moment for me because I felt this day would never come,” said Sebrango. “It’s a difficult decision for me because I still have the passion and energy to play and live the life of a pro player. I have been very lucky to have played all these years and to leave my sport with my health and with the respect of my peers. I would like to thank Joey Saputo, his family, and the entire Impact organization who gave me the opportunity to make a career by playing the game I love. I would also like to thank the Whitecaps organization, all my coaches and teammates, my parents, my family, as well as my children Gabriella and Donovan.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sebrango was the MVP for the Impact in 2002, won five championships (two with Montreal), and scored 10 goals in 35 playoff games. He will be most remembered for his three goals with the Impact in the historic CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal appearance against Mexico\u2019s Santos Laguna.<\/p>\n
“He was one of the best offensive players to ever play in this league,” said Impact president Joey Saputo. “He played an important role in the success of the team. He was a true professional on and off the field, and was always devoted to the club.”<\/p>\n
Sebrango will be joining the Montreal staff as an Impact Academy coach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
