Mario Gerges (born November 20, 1995) is a Canadian soccer player who plays for Canadian Premier League club FC Supra du Québec.

Early life

Gerges began playing youth soccer with CS St-Hubert, before later joining AS Saint-Lambert.[1] When he was 16, he traveled to the United States to try-out with the Portland Timbers Academy, where he initially earned a spot, however, as his family did not live there, they arranged for him to join the Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy.[1] However, the Whitecaps Academy did not have a roster spot for him, but allowed him to remain and train with the program.[1] He joined Coquitlam Metro-Ford SC and was named to Team British Columbia for the 2013 Canada Summer Games,[2][3] where he was named to the tournament All-Star team.[4]

University career

In 2014, Gerges began attending the Université de Montréal, where he played for the men's soccer team.[1][5]

In 2016, he began attending the Université Laval, joining the men's soccer team. [6]

Club career

In 2015, Gerges began playing with CS Longueuil in the Première ligue de soccer du Québec.[1] Later in 2015 and in early 2016, he trained with USL club FC Montreal, the second team of the Montreal Impact, but ultimately did not sign with the club.[1][2] In 2017, he played with Dynamo de Québec.[2] In 2018, he joined the TSS FC Rovers in the Premier Development League.[2] After the end of the season, he returned to the PLSQ with CS St-Hubert.

In late 2018, he went to Spain, as he was told there was a Spanish fourth tier side interested in signing him, but it turned out to not be the case, and he returned to Quebec a month later.[1] In early 2019, he went to Egypt to trial with Egyptian Premier League side Al Ittihad Alexandria Club, signing a contract, however, shortly before the start of the next season, the coaching staff was replaced and they chose to not honour his contract.[1]

In 2020, he played with CS Longueuil in the PLSQ. In November 2020, he signed with Al Ittifaq in the Bahraini Second Division.[1]

In 2025, he joined AS Gatineau in Ligue2 Québec, where he helped the side win promotion and earned the league's Golden Glove award.[7]

In April 2026, he signed a short-term contract with Canadian Premier League club FC Supra du Québec.[8][9] He made his debut on June 6, in a draw against Pacific FC.[10]

International career

In October 2013, Gerges was called up to a training camp with the Canada U18.[11]
