Sandro Grande (born September 29, 1977 in Montreal) is a professional soccer player from Quebec with caps for the Canadian national team. He is currently without a club.
A 5'8 midfielder, Grande became the first Quebec-born footballer to sign with an Serie A club, signing a three-year deal with Brescia Calcio in 2001. Appearing in just one match for the first team, in the Intertoto Cup in July 2001, Grande was loaned to Serie C side Frosinone Calcio, for whom he had played before in the late 1990s. He has played in Italy with Serie D sides Potenza and Albalonga. Grande returned to Canada in 2004 to play for the Montreal Impact of the USL First Division, where he played 30 games and was selected to the First All-Star Team for 2004.
In July 2005, he moved to Viking FK, and in March 2006 to Molde FK of the Norwegian Premier League. After his contract with Molde FK expired in 2007, the club chose not to renew it.
