TORONTO, Canada—Could a ninth team be joining the Canadian Premier League (CanPL) next season?
The league certainly raised some eyebrows Thursday evening, tweeting out a cryptic video that seems to hint towards a potential expansion.
The CanPL, which is targeting a Victoria Day weekend start date for its third season, currently consists of eight teams: Atletico Ottawa, Cavalry FC, FC Edmonton, Forge FC, HFX Wanderers FC, Pacific FC, Valour FC, and York9 FC York United FC.
Quebec and Saskatchewan have been high on the league’s priority list for expansion, but it is unclear at this time exactly where the next Canadian franchise will emerge.
