Edman joins WiganEdman joins Wigan

Rennes and former Tottenham defender Erik Edman has joined Wigan. The Swedish left-back was being chased with several Premiership sides, but Wigan have won the race for his signature.

"We lose a skilled, professional player and a wonderful person." Rennes spokesman Jerome Poupard told Sportbladet.

"We are a club with a tradition to give young players a chance and we got a few coming through the pipe."

"To play in the toughest league in the world again feels terrific." Edman told Viasatsport.se.

"It was a chance I could not refuse. It's a challenge to face the best players in the world."
