Red Bulls trying to add Brazil's Edmundo

According to CNNSI, Edmundo, a 36-year-old forward who was a reserve on Brazil's 1998 World Cup team, might join Major League Soccer's New York Red Bulls.

"I was told to come up with the name of a famous Brazilian who had played for the Brazilian team. I gave them Edmundo, and he was approved," agent Fred Souza was quoted as saying by the Placar news agency on Wednesday. "There is an offer on the table, and Edmundo initially thought it was interesting. It could be a matter of days."

On Tuesday, two newspapers in Argentina said playmaker Guillermo Barros Schelotto was considering a contract with the Columbus Crew.
