hahaha anything to unload him.. If they could complete the vanzeir transfer then a trio of vanzeir, burke and Manoel seams like a big upgrade. Then focus back on defense for a CB and RB


Duncan is coming back, not my choice but it is what it is.

If they can get Vanzeir, sign Stroud, and a legit replacement for Long that would be a pretty solid winter.

I dont mind Duncan returning.. I know we all would like to have a big upgrade but right now CB is a bigger priority. Plus, I see him as a solid mls player. He wanted to try Europe and it seems like it hasnt worked out. Hes still only 25 and domestic player. I think with a preseason he will get back to his previous form and make us forget the bad form he had on his loan.

Lots of articles out of Belgium about the move.

Vanzeir says he is flattered at the interest, but he is focused on his match this weekend and leaving it up to his agency to handle.

There has been no official offer to this point from RBNY.


my favorite translated quotes from the articles is “I am an atypical striker, who works best in a certain system,” “I like direct and fast football, some top clubs prefer to live on possession rather than the risk of making the action.”

 

This guy is a red bull striker for sure.  just pay

His team got promoted in 2021 and finished FIRST in the regular season in 2022, only to lose in the convoluted playoff system... He was second top scorer behind Undav, who got sold to Brighton for 6M.

This is a spot for the club to prove they have graduated past previous windows and balking at prices.

When you identify a target you have to have an idea of what he may cost and the type of money that has to be allocated to get it done.

Either way, I dont want another We tried. If the player isnt interested that is unavoidable, but there should be an alternative to pivot to.

Sources: New York Red Bulls are in talks with Union SG about signing Belgian forward Dante Vanzeir. Nothing agreed yet.

Vanzeir, 24, has 47g/21a in 89 apps with Union SG. Made his debut with Belgian national team in 2021. Can play through the center or on the wing.

Would be the most ambitious signing by the club in years.  I actually cannot remember the last time the team signed a player who regularly scored goals in a decent league.  Might be Thierry Henry.

Would prob mean that we are offloading someone since, if you include Stroud's HG signing, we'd be at 28 players. 

 

Either way, hope that this means the end of Klimala's stay with the team.

anyone we'd sell is a worse player than him so its fine haha.  this would be the most excited i've been for a signing since Kaku if it gets done. Kaku was a genuine attempt to take a good team over the top.  This would show the team for once being proactive to correct a position group with multiple logical upgrades instead of praying one works out.
