Demerit to Whitecaps?

The Vancouver Whitecaps have emerged as a contender for U.S. national team defender Jay DeMerit, a starter at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Rumours continue to circulate of a DeMerit move to German Bundesliga side Wolfsburg, and there are unsourced reports of interest from English Premier League side Everton. But The Province has learned that the Whitecaps, set to jump to Major League Soccer in March, have been in productive talks with DeMerit and are now trying to find common ground with MLS.
