2012 Montreal Impact season
Montreal Impact 2012 football season
The 2012 Montreal Impact season was the club's inaugural season in Major League Soccer , the top flight of both American and Canadian soccer. Including the former club , this was the 19th season of a team under the moniker "Montreal Impact".
For the 2012 season, outside of MLS, the Impact competed in the 2012 Canadian Championship , Canada's domestic cup competition, which determined the Canadian entrant in the CONCACAF Champions League, in which they lost the semi-final.
Jesse Marsch was hired to be the head coach in the club's inaugural season in MLS. Mauro Biello , Preston Burpo and Mike Sorber were hired as assistant coaches for the inaugural season.
Background
Prior to the start of the season, a Division 2 soccer club of the same named played in the North American Soccer League finishing in seventh during the regular season, failing to qualify for the playoffs.
On May 7, 2010, the club's owner, Joey Saputo, was granted a 19th franchise in Major League Soccer, starting in 2012.[1] The MLS franchise will be privately owned by the Saputo family.
On June 14, 2011, the Montreal Impact announced they've reached a five-year agreement with the Bank of Montreal (BMO) to become lead sponsor and jersey sponsor when they join MLS as an expansion team in 2012.

A ranking can be traded, provided that part of the compensation received in return is another club's ranking.[80]
