After months of speculation, it seems like the captain will be returning to Red Bull Arena and will NOT be a free agent for 2017.
Ives Galarcep of Goal USA is reporting that Dax McCarty has signed a 4 year deal and will stay with the club until 2020. No other details are being reported. Once a Metro reached out to the New York Red Bulls, but the team would not provide a comment.
if this is true, it is big news not only for the Red Bulls, but for the league as well, as Dax was supposed to be one of the top players in the 2017 free agents of MLS.
