Official: Union sign USMNT regular Alejandro Bedoya

FC Nantes have announced that the American will return home to join the Philadelphia Union.

In an incredibly dramatic and unintentionally hilarious tweet, FC Nantes have announced that USMNT midfielder Alejandro Bedoya will join the Philadelphia Union. This transfer has moved quickly, as the Union's renewed interest in the player was first reported less than 36 hours ago.

Though the deal is essentially done, it is not yet officially official. Multiple reports state that some paperwork needs sorting before the Union or MLS announce the transfer.
