Edgar Davids is another big name midfielder who could be playing football in the United States soon.

On the day David Beckham confirmed he would be joining MLS side LA Galaxy, FC Dallas boss Steve Morrow admitted his interest in Tottenham's 33-year-old former Dutch international midfielder.

Ex-Arsenal midfielder Morrow said: "We are actually in negotiations with Edgar Davids — we've been speaking for a couple of weeks.

"We were excited to hear about his availability, so we spoke to his agents and have been told he is available."

Morrow took over as manager of the Western Conference side last month, after playing 44 games for the side in 2002-03.

And he added on BBC London 94.9: "It appears Tottenham are willing to listen to offers.

"It's the transfer window in the United States now — and if a deal is going to happen it has to be done before the end of the month."
