FOOTNOTES : Dutch Club Dealing for Ramos

MILAN, Italy — JC Roda of the Netherlands’ first division has offered U.S. midfielder Tab Ramos a three-year contract. The U.S. Soccer Federation is asking for a $750,000 transfer fee, a figure the club has balked at.

Ramos would prefer a two-year or one-year deal, but nothing can happen until the transfer fee is worked out.
