Red Bulls Academy Highlights Player Pathway with Summer Signings

Red Bulls Academy made a number of signings this summer, bolstering rosters at all age-levels heading into the 2020-2021 season. Many of those signings highlight Red Bulls’ Player Pathway and the club’s commitment to youth development.

September signing Aneel Ward, a U14 goalkeeper, joined from Red Bulls Youth Programs official partner club Hoboken City FC.

“Aneel is a rare combination of size and power for such a young player,” said Academy Scout Fouad Kawtari. “From a goalkeeping standpoint, we are really excited for Aneel to join us at this stage of his development and allow the Red Bulls Academy to act as the launching pad to fulfill his soccer aspirations.
