The New England Revolution traded defender Brayan Ceballos to CF Montreal on Friday in exchange for up to $850,000 in General Allocation Money (GAM).
The payments were divided into $500,000 in 2026 GAM, $250,000 in 2027 GAM and up to $100,000 in conditional GAM. The Revs also retained a percentage of Ceballos' sell-on rights should he be transferred again.
"Brayan is a reliable and versatile defender who can play effectively in a variety of systems, making him an important addition to our roster,"
Luca Saputo, Montreal's managing director for recruitment and sporting methodology, said in a statement. "His strengths will complement those already present in our defensive unit. We are confident that he will contribute to our collective objectives as well as the team's development."
Ceballos, 25, came to the Revolution from Brazil's Fortaleza EC in January 2025. He had three goals in 38 career games (37 starts) for the Revs, with two of those goals coming in one game this season, March 15 against Cincinnati.
"We are grateful to Brayan for all his contributions during his time in New England. We wish him all the best in Montreal," Revolution general manager Chris Tierney said in a statement. "As we look to continue improving the first team, generating this significant amount of allocation money will allow us to continue investing in the roster in the future."
