TRANSFER TRACKER STATUS:Reports
The transfer market appears to be heating up for the New York Red Bulls.
It was reported on Thursday that the Red Bulls are closing in on signing multiple players, with an Argentine journalist tweeting that the club is ready to drop a massive transfer fee for midfielder Alejandro Romero Gamarra and Kristian Dyer reporting that the team is interested in bringing back forward Amando Moreno from Tijuana and nearing deals with a pair of Homegrown players.
Argentine reporter Manu Martin tweeted on Thursday night that the Red Bulls and Argentine club Huracan have agreed to a $7 million transfer for 90 percent of the rights to Romero Gamarra. The 22-year-old winger has spent his entire career with Huracan, recording one goal and three assists in 12 appearances in their current campaign. He played three matches for Argentina at the 2015 U-20 World Cup.
Dyer reported on Thursday that New York are interested in bringing back Moreno, who signed with the Red Bulls as a Homegrown Player in 2013 before leaving the club to join Tijuana the following year. He hasn’t broken through with Xolos, only appearing in four league matches with the Liga MX club.
Dyer also reported that New York are also interested in signing Wake Forest defender Kevin Politz and 17-year-old academy and New York Red Bulls II midfielder Ben Mines to Homegrown contracts.
