Bradley Wright-Phillips: The Last to Wear No. 99 for RBNY

The New York Red Bulls honored Bradley Wright-Phillips by announcing that no player will wear his number ever again in the organization.

General Manager Marc de Grandpre said that the No. 99 will never be issued to another player once Wright-Phillips hangs up his boots, whenever he so chooses. The number will not be issued throughout the entire organization, from the Academy to the MLS team.

Wright-Phillips recently became the fastest MLS player to score 100 regular season goals, doing so in just 159 matches.

BWP was also honored with a special game ball, a commemorative one-of-a-kind hat and a special watch, with "100" hand-etched on the back.
