Key decisions will need to be made by the New York Red Bulls who released their roster decisions following the end of the 2021 season. Key names are either out of contract or had their options declined including: Daniel Royer, Fabio, Mathias Jorgensen, Kyle Duncan and captain Sean Davis. Expectations are that Davis will return but we know that Duncan has already departed the club for Europe.

Several names will remain in New York for the foreseeable future including Frankie Amaya who signed a three-year deal with the Red Bulls which begins at the start of next season. The team has also decided to trigger the purchase option on goalkeeper Carlos Coronel who played every game for the club in 2021. Other players like Ryan Meara, Aaron Long, Omir Fernandez and Wiki Carmona have had their options exercised and are expected to return next year.

Other names of note are Andrew Gutman and Tom Edwards who's options have expired. There isn't any news as to whether they will return to the team next season. Edwards will be heading back to England with Stoke City and Gutman will return to Atlanta United.

Remaining New York Red Bulls Roster:

Goalkeepers: Carlos Coronel, Ryan Meara, AJ Marcucci, David Jensen

Defenders: Aaron Long, Lucas Monzon, Sean Nealis, Jason Pendant, Andres Reyes, John Tolkin

Midfielders: Frankie Amaya, Wiki Carmona, Cristian Casseres Jr., Bento Estrela, Dru Yearwood, Cameron Harper, Omir Fernandez

Forwards: Patryk Klimala, Tom Barlow, Omar Sowe

Editorial: New York Red Bulls are Fun to Watch

photo by Matt Kremkau by Daniel Feuerstein The New York Red Bulls 2024 season starts off and running. In their first three matches, they have looked different from their last five to six seasons of doom and despair when trying to attack or have a lapse in judgment on the defensive end. The two big editions for the club are undoubtedly the imports from Sweden in Centerback Noah Elle & attacking midfielder Emil Forsberg. Two players who are a part of the Swedish National Team have started off well in Major League Soccer. We all knew what we were getting right away from Forsberg. A high-energy creative and attacking midfielder who was already bought in from day one, when Director of Sport Jochen Schneider went to Leipzig and brought him over. He was already committed to making the trip to the United States to play his brand of soccer, and so far he hasn't disappointed. Even though he has come close three times off of free kicks, hitting the crossbar twice and being saved by the ke...

Quotes: Red Bulls Show Promise, But More Work Need To Be Done

photo by Matt Kremkau Sixty seconds in a ninety-minute match. That’s all it took for Sporting Kansas City to ruin the Opening Day festivities at Red Bull Arena on Saturday night. The supporters in attendance saw crisp passing and a stout defense that kept the visitors at bay, despite not having striker Alan Pulido in the starting lineup. But significantly, the supporters were buoyed by a return to that press that has last seen since Jesse Marsch was in charge. But that was the first 45 minutes.

I really wanted to do that in front of the supporters, and it was great to do that in front of the few that were here tonight who brought the noise. When I scored that [goal] the place was shaking, and you feed off of that and gai...
