Occasionally outspoken soccer agent Ron Waxman represents the New York Red Bulls Tim Parker - who just signed a new deal with RBNY that is in itself a big deal, three times over.
It is a big deal for the Red Bulls because it means they have their entire 2018 starting back four - the league’s best defense last season - under contract for 2019.
It is a big deal for Parker because it reportedly makes Parker one of the best-paid defenders in MLS, and elevates his salary to a level rarely enjoyed by a defender in a league that historically undervalues defenders.
