The reliable 27-year-old left-back has enjoyed a successful season with Rennes following his switch from Tottenham last August. He has been a regular in the Sweden side for the last three years and starred in seven of the World Cup qualifiers. He made his name with Helsinborgs before signing for Torino. Edman moved to Heerenveen in 2001 and spent three years with the Dutch side before being snapped up by then Tottenham boss Jacques Santini in July 2004. After playing in 28 Premiership games for the north London side in the 2004-05 campaign he left White Hart Lane for Rennes on a free transfer just three games into the 2005-06 season.
