Rangers have announced the signing of defensive midfielder Maurice Edu from MLS side Toronto FC for a fee of £2.6m ( $5m). The American international 22, has signed a five year contract, and the move will be completed as soon as the player receives a work permit.
Edu becomes Walter Smith’s third signing in the last seven days, the other two being Aaron Niguez Esclapez from Valencia ( on loan with an option to buy) and Portuguese midfielder Pedro Mendes. Fans of Rangers made their displeasure felt at Carlos Cuellar’s departure, but the new signings will give them something to cheer about.
