Tristan Borges
Tristan Daniel Borges (born August 26, 1998) is a Canadian professional soccer player who plays as a midfielder for Canadian Premier League club Forge FC.
Borges began playing youth soccer with Vaughan SC, later moving on to Kleinburg-Nobleton SC followed by West Toronto SC. In 2015, he joined the Toronto FC Academy. He is of Portuguese descent and holds a European passport.
In 2015, he played in League1 Ontario with Toronto FC III. He scored his first goal on July 4 against ANB Futbol. Over the course of the season, he scored six goals.
From early 2016 until summer 2018, Borges was a member of the youth academy of Dutch Eredivisie club SC Heerenveen where he played for the U21 team.
After leaving Heerenveen in summer 2018, Borges returned to Canada and signed with League1 Ontario side Sigma FC in September of that year.
On January 10, 2019, Borges signed his first professional contract with Canadian Premier League side Forge FC. He made his debut in the inaugural CPL match against York9 FC on April 27, 2019. He scored the winning goal in the first leg of the CPL Finals, before being sent off. Forge appealed the red card to the Canadian Soccer Association and it was rescinded, allowing Borges to play in the second leg, which also ended in a 1–0 victory. Borges was a standout in the CPL's inaugural season, winning the Golden Boot, with 13 goals, and sharing in a six-way tie for most assists, with five. In November 2019, Borges was announced as both the CPL Player of the Year and best Canadian U-21 player.
On January 22, 2020, Borges was transferred to Belgian First Division B side Oud-Heverlee Leuven for a fee reported to be "between $300,000 and $500,000", signing a contract until summer 2022. He made his debut on February 1 against Roeselare.
On March 5, 2021, after receiving limited playing time for OH Leuven, Borges was loaned back to Forge FC for the 2021 Canadian Premier League season. His loan was later extended in February 2022. Upon the expiry of his contract with Leuven and thus his Forge loan, he remained with Forge for the remainder of the season. In October 2023, Borges helped Forge win their fourth league title, scoring an Olympico goal to seal a 2–1 win over Cavalry FC in the play-off final. At the end of the 2024 season, he was named the 2024 CPL Player of the Year, becoming the first player to win the award twice.
