He came on as a 77th-minute substitute for Oliver Minatel as the match ended 0–0.[5] Messoudi would fail to make a league appearance for Ottawa and upon his return to Montreal, his contract option was declined at the end of the 2014 season.[6]

FC Montreal

Despite being cut Messoudi would remain a part of the Impact organization, being announced as part of the roster of the newly formed FC Montreal on March 13, 2015.[7] He was released by the team at the end of the 2015 USL season.
