Posted on by

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of foreign players in the Canadian Soccer League (formally Canadian Professional Soccer League), which commenced play in 1998. The following players must meet the following criteria:

  1. Are considered foreign, i.e., outside Canada determined by the following:
A player is considered foreign if he is not eligible to play for the national team of Canada.

More specifically,

  • If a player has been capped on international level, the national team is used; if he has been capped by more than one country, the highest level (or the most recent) team is used. These include Canadian players with dual citizenship.
  • If a player has not been capped on international level, his country of birth is used, except those who were born abroad from Canadian parents, or moved to Canada at a young age, and those who clearly indicated to have switched his nationality to another nation.

In bold: players who have played in the CSL in the current season (2022 Canadian Soccer League), and are still at the clubs for which they have played.
