Canadian soccer clubs in international competitions

Edit links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of Canadian soccer clubs in international competitions. Canadian clubs have participated in competitive international soccer competitions since at least 1975 when the Serbian White Eagles entered the 1975 CONCACAF Champions' Cup.

No Canadian team has won any CONCACAF competition, but in 2015 and in 2018, CF Montréal (then the Montreal Impact) and Toronto FC, respectively, reached the finals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup, losing both times. Toronto FC lost the 2018 edition of the Campeones Cup.

Qualification for CONCACAF competitions

[edit]

Starting in 2023, at least three Canadian clubs qualify for each edition of the CONCACAF Champions Cup:[1]

Canadian MLS clubs can also qualify through Major League Soccer or Leagues Cup. If a CPL club were to win the league championship and the regular season, the CPL regular season runner-up would qualify in the second slot. If the Canadian Championship winner has qualified through any other method, then the runner-up would fill the slot; should the runner-up have already qualified, then the highest ranked semifinalist would earn the slot.[2]
