List of foreign CPL players

This is a list of foreign players that have played in the Canadian Premier League. The following players:

  1. Have played at least one CPL regular season game. Players who were signed by CPL clubs, but only played in playoff games, Canadian Championship games, or did not play in any competitive games at all, are not included.
  2. 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 at 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 at 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.
