The New York Red Bulls may be making some room on the back line.
According to multiple reports out of Cyprus, Apollon Limassol FC is “close to an agreement” with defender Amro Tarek. The two parties remain in contact and “developments are expected soon.” Manager Alexander Zorniger is said to have “positively evaluated” the transfer. Balla claims that “the only thing left [is] the confirmation with his announcement” and “a medical examination.”
The transfer negotiations began “25 days ago” and there was a “difference” in demands, but Apollo is in serious need of a center back after an injury to Valentin Roberge.
