If you are not familiar with MetroFanatic.com's Red Bulls Media Day coverage, become so now. In the site's interview with Aaron Long - which contains a few more interesting nuggets; read it here - there is also a bit of important news: the 2016 USL Defender of the Year is on RBNY's MLS roster for 2017.
MetroFanatic: Aaron, are you officially signed to the first team?
Aaron Long: Yes, I am!MF: Because they never announced it... upper management is not really on top of stuff.
