Ives Galarcep has been tracking New York Red Bulls' negotiations with Adam Najem for a while now, so it will be fitting if the veteran MLS reporter has figured out the story's conclusion.
After reporting that Najem's Homegrown Player rights had been put on the trading block by RBNY, and explaining that club and player had reached an impasse in contract talks, Galarcep's latest report for Goal.com states the player's rights have been traded away to Philadelphia Union.
Najem will be starting his pro career as a member of the Philadelphia Union, with sources telling Goal that the Red Bulls have traded Najem’s rights to the Union.
