Jamie Knight-Lebel

Jamie Knight-Lebel of Motherwell was born in La Pocatière, Canada on 24 December 2004 (age 21).

Jamie Knight-Lebel is a Canadian central defender, born on 24 December 2004 (age 21), now with Motherwell, where he wears the number 4 shirt.

His senior league breakthrough came at Bristol City, with two league appearances in the 2023-24 season. That was a modest start, but enough to put him on the professional track before his move into Scottish football.

At Motherwell in 2026-27, Knight-Lebel has made two league appearances and has also played twice in Conference League qualifying. Across all competitions for the Fir Park side, he has made four appearances.

It is still an early senior career: Bristol City gave him his first league exposure, and Motherwell have given him a clearer place in a first-team squad.
