Finnish receivers Micky Kyei, Sebastien Sagne earn invite to CFL Combine in Toronto

Receivers Micky Kyei and Sebastien Sagne have been extended invitations to showcase their skills for Canadian Football League general managers, coaches and scouts in Toronto from March 26-28.

Kyei and Sagne were among the 15 players who participated in the CFL Global Combine in Finland, conducted in association with the American Football Federation of Finland or the Suomen Amerikkalaisen Jalkapallon Liitto (SAJL) in Finnish.

The CFL will announce the full list of global players invited to Toronto following the completion of the 10 Global Combines. The 2020 CFL Global Draft will take place on April 16.

During the 2019 season, CFL rosters featured, for the first time ever, one designated ‘global player’ from outside the U.S. and Canada on each team’s active roster and as many as two more on their practice rosters.

In 2020, the number of global players per team will increase to two on the active roster and up-to-three on the practice roster, with as many as 45 global players competing in the league in 2020.
