Charlotte FC is looking to give its inaugural season a shot in the arm, as The Crown attempt to sign former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey.
The Crown are also targeting Jackson Yueill, a 25-year-old midfielder for San Jose, in what would be an incredible coup for the first-year club.
Ramsey had his Juventus contract terminated on Tuesday after spending last season on loan at Scottish club Rangers.
The 31-year-old is officially a free agent and is assessing offers from America and Europe before making his next move.
