The New York Red Bulls tend to keep their transfer market wheelings and dealings as quiet as they can. News inevitably slips out, sometimes aided by a whisper or two from within the club itself, but for the most part RBNY prefers to say nothing official about additions or subtractions to the roster until a deal is sufficiently advanced that it can be described as “completed” in a press release. That is the club’s right, of course.
It is therefore notable when RBNY chooses to depart from its informal policy of silence on the subject of its transfer market adventures.
