Dylan Chambost (born 19 August 1997) is a French professional footballer who plays as midfielder for the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer.
Chambost began his footballing career with ES Veauche before being recruited to join the academy of Saint-Étienne, being part of the teams that won the under-13 and under-17 league championships.[2] He signed his first professional contract with the club on 18 May 2017. Upon signing, Chambost stated, "I did all my training at ASSE. It was my dream to become professional here."[3] While playing for Saint-Étienne B, he was named captain for the 2017–18 season, leading the reserve team to promotion to National 2.[4] [5] Following the promotion and a successful individual season in which he netted 12 times and assisted nine, Chambost signed a two-year contract extension with Les Verts, and would retain his captaincy for the 'B' team for the following season.[6]
Chambost received his first professional appearance during a Coupe de France match on 24 January 2018 versus Troyes, coming on as a second half substitute.[7] [8] He appeared in just one more Coupe de France game the following year.
On 1 July 2019, Chambost agreed to sign for three years with Troyes, reuniting with his former Saint-Étienne B coach, Laurent Batlles,[9] with the player himself stating that he needed a move because "my future was blocked at ASSE". He made his debut for his new club on August 2, 2019, in a 2–1 Ligue 2 loss to Clermont, during which he also received a red card.[10] [11] Chambost scored his first goal for Troyes in September, a second-half stoppage time winner to prevail 2–1 against Caen.[12]
On 20 June 2022, Chambost returned to Saint-Étienne, signing a two-year contract with the club and reuniting him once more with Laurent Batlles.[13] He fractured his wrist in a preseason match which caused him to miss the first four matches of the new season,[14] with his return coming in an away fixture at Valenciennes on 27 August.[15] [16] Chambost remained a starter for the first third of the season before losing his spot and seeing a dramatic decrease in playing time for the remainder of the season. He was given a starting opportunity against Stade Lavallois, where he scored in a 2–1 defeat.[17] He then started and scored in the following match, a 4–2 win against Quevilly-Rouen.[18] Chambost continued as a starter for the last two games of the season.[19] [20] Chambost scored his first goal of the 2023–24 season on 28 August versus Annecy, and would miss the following two matches due to injury.[21] On 20 December 2023, he scored two goals in the first 10 minutes of the match in the 3–2 victory versus Bastia.[22] [23]
On 11 June 2024, it was announced that the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer had acquired Chambost from Saint-Étienne. He signed a contract through the 2026 season, with a club option for a further season.[24] Making his official debut for Columbus in the Leagues Cup against Sporting Kansas City, Chambost scored the final goal in a 4–0 win for his new side.[25] [26] Chambost made his league debut on 28 August, a start against Philadelphia Union that ended in a 1–0 win.[27]
He is a fan of Bernardo Silva.
