While the New York Red Bulls were prolific in the last offseason, making a dozen first team signings, the amount of transfers made on a temporary loan basis certainly limited some of the excitement around such an active window. Reasoned by sporting chief Kevin Thelwell as a “try-before-you-buy” approach dealing with younger players in many cases making their first foreign transfer in the midst of a pandemic, several of these players have indeed settled and become key first team contributors.
Tom Edwards, Fábio, Carlos Coronel, Andrew Gutman, and Youba Diarra will all see their contracts lapse after the season.
