Report: Mike Grella ready to sign contract extension

As everyone knows the 2015 New York Red Bulls season had plenty of surprises. It ended up as a fantastic season that sadly went one goal short of forcing extra time in the Eastern Conference Final against Columbus Crew SC. One of those surprises came from Glen Cove Long Island native Mike Grella.

After stints with Leeds United, Carlisle United, and Scunthorpe United in England, as well as a stint in Denmark with Viborg until he came back to the USA in the 2014 season with the NASL's Carolina Railhawks, Grella thought his playing days were over, but Jesse Marsch called him in to pre-season camp and he was signed for the 2015 season.
