Goff: Mo headed to Scotland

Uber-blogger Steve Goff is reporting that Toronto FC midfielder and Olympian Maurice Edu is being courted by Scottish giants Rangers.

Two sources tell me that Toronto FC midfielder Maurice Edu, a USA Olympic starter and an emerging national team candidate, is close to joining Glasgow Rangers. I am told the transfer fee would approach $5 million. It's not a done deal, but the sides are apparently nearing an agreement.

If a deal is struck, Edu would join fellow American midfielder DaMarcus Beasley in Scotland, although rumors have had Beasley on the move as well, perhaps to the EPL.
