Early career[edit]

Gagnon-Laparé joined the Montreal Impact youth academy in 2011. In 2012, he would play with the academy's senior team in the first division of the Canadian Soccer League.[1][2] He would help Montreal secure a playoff berth by finishing second in the division.[3] In the preliminary round of the postseason, the senior team defeated Toronto FC's senior academy team.[4] Montreal would qualify for the championship final after defeating the York Region Shooters in the semifinal round.[5][6] In the championship match, the club was defeated by the reigning champions Toronto Croatia.[7]

He resumed playing with the academy team in 2013 as the team participated in the U.S. Soccer Development Academy.[8] Gagnon-Laparé would also play with the Montreal Impact's reserve team in the MLS Reserve League throughout the 2013 campaign.[9] His final season with the Montreal youth team was in the 2014 season where he competed in the American-based USL Premier Development League.[10]

Montreal Impact[edit]

On May 7, 2014, Gagnon-Laparé made his professional debut for the Montreal Impact in a 2–1 defeat to FC Edmonton in the Canadian Championship.[11][12] Gagnon-Laparé signed his first professional contract with the Montreal Impact on July 3, 2014.[13][12] He made his debut against Real Salt Lake on July 24, 2014.[14][15] In his debut season with the Impact, he assisted the club in winning the Canadian Championship and secured a berth in the 2014–15 CONCACAF Champions League.[16] He made his debut in the Champions League on September 18, 2014, against the New York Red Bulls.[17]

Gagnon-Laparé joined Ottawa Fury FC on loan for the rest of the 2015 NASL season on October 6, 2015.[18] After 3 seasons with the Impact, the club announced they would not pick up Gagnon-Laparé's contract option for the 2017 season.[19][20]

After trialing with Stade Rennais in late 2016,[21] Gagnon-Laparé signed with CFA club AS Vitré in January 2017.[22] He would spend 18 months at the club before departing at the end of the 2017–18 season.[23]

Saint Louis FC[edit]

Following Ottawa ceasing operations and moving to Miami, Gagnon-Laparé stayed in the USL Championship with Saint Louis FC ahead of their 2020 season.[27] With St. Louis City SC starting play in MLS in 2023, Saint Louis FC would fold at the end of the 2020 season, ending Gagnon-Laparés time at the club after one season.[28]
