The French midfielder and Leagues Cup 2024 champion is currently in his third season with the Black & Gold after joining the team from French side AS Saint-Étienne.
“Dylan’s consistency, reliability and performances have been evident over the past three seasons,” said Crew General Manager Issa Tall. “His professionalism and team-first mindset have made a strong impact within our locker room. We are happy that Dylan will remain in Columbus for years to come, and we believe he will continue to grow and make an impact on our squad.”
“I’m really happy and proud to be extending my contract with the Club," said Chambost. “Being part of the Crew means a lot to me. I’m looking forward to continuing our journey together and achieving our goals!”

After arriving in Columbus in summer of 2024, Chambost scored in his first competitive match for the Crew, burying his left-footed rebound in the 79th minute of a 4-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City on Aug. 9. The 28-year-old recently appeared in his 50th regular season match on April 18. He has started four of five postseason matches and four of six Leagues Cup matches since joining the Crew.
