Red Bulls 2022 Announce End-of-Year Roster Decisions

photo by Matt Kremkau

New York Red Bulls 2022 season is over and now the team has revealed the roster decisions on who will stay and who will be departing the club. The biggest departures are those that were staying at the club via loan, although they still may return depending on negotiations. Caden Clark, Kyle Duncan and Elias Manoel have expired loans with no word as to whether they will be returning with the team in any capacity.

The team has exercised the options of goalkeeper AJ Marcucci as well as defenders Hassan Ndam, Dylan Nealis and Matt Nocita. Midfielders Wikelman Carmona, Omir Fernandez, Cristian Casseres Jr. and Steven Sserrwadda will also be returning.

A surprise name to be renewed is Jake LaCava. The forward has been missing from New York in 2022, having last made an appearance for New York Red Bulls II in 2021. He was on loan with the Tampa Bay Rowdies who will play Memphis 901 FC in the next round of the USL Championship playoffs. LaCava finished the season with 12 goals for Tampa and factored into last week's 3-1 victory over Miami FC in the playoff quarterfinals.

Aaron Long will also be out of contract with little word yet as to whether he will be returning to the club.

New York Red Bulls Current Roster:

Goalkeepers: Carlos Coronel, Ryan Meara, AJ Marcucci

Defenders: Hassan Ndam, Dylan Nealis, Sean Nealis, Matt Nocita, Andres Reyes, John Tolkin

Midfielders: Frankie Amaya, Wikelman Carmona, Cristian Casseres Jr., Daniel Edelman, Bento Estrela, Cameron Harper, Omir Fernandez, Lewis Morgan, Luquinhas, Steven Sserwadda, Dru Yearwood

Forwards: Tom Barlow, Jake LaCava, Patryk Klimala, Serge Ngoma

Injury Update: Marcucci and Vanzeir Shine; Morgan Still Recovering

photo by Matt Kremkau by Anthony J. Merced As preseason winds down with one game left to play, the players ready and available for Sandro Schwarz become more clear. Dante Vanzeir, who ended his 2023 with a back injury, has seemingly found the form the team hoped to get last year and goalkeeper AJ Marcucci looks ready to prove himself as an MLS goalkeeper with a solid performance on Wednesday. While there are positives from players coming back from injury, one player who still appears to be looking for fitness is Lewis Morgan. The 2022 top scorer for the Red Bulls, saw himself on the sidelines for most of 2023. Now, in preseason, he finds himself still working towards fitness according to head coach Sandro Schwarz.

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...
