Jamie Knight-Lebel

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

Jamie Knight-Lebel, born on 24 December 2004 (age 21), is a Canadian central defender whose senior career has taken its clearest shape at Motherwell.

His early league record includes the 2023-24 season at Bristol City, where he made two league appearances. That was a modest start, but enough to put him on the senior track rather than leave him as another name in a youth system.

Motherwell has become the main point of reference. Wearing the number four shirt, Knight-Lebel has made four league appearances in 2026-27, along with one League Cup appearance and four in Conference League qualifiers, taking him to nine appearances in all competitions for the club.

His career remains at an early senior stage, with Bristol City giving him initial exposure and Motherwell providing the more substantial platform. He is primarily a central defender, and that is the role around which his professional record is being built.
