MONTREAL – With less than two months before the Champions League quarterfinal series, the Montreal Impact unveiled plans for its upcoming training camp.


Players will take part in their first training session on Friday, January 23, at Olympic Stadium.


The Impact will train in Montreal for two weeks before heading to Mexico on February 8, in order to continue its camp in preparation for the first game of the home and away series against Mexican club Pachuca, on February 24, at 10pm ET (TVA Sports) in Mexico.


The return leg of this important aggregate goal matchup will be played on the following Tuesday, March 3, at Olympic Stadium (ticketmaster.ca).


Before training camp begins, the club's technical staff will spend a few days in Florida, from January 9 to 13, in order to evaluate prospects at the MLS Combine. The MLS SuperDraft will then be held on January 15, in Philadelphia. The Impact holds the third selection in the first round.


IMFC will kick off its 4th season in MLS on Saturday, March 7, against D.C. United, at RFK Stadium, at 3pm. The bleu-blanc-noir will host its home opener on Saturday, March 28 at 4pm at Olympic Stadium, against expansion side Orlando City SC.
