NYCFC is trying to claim the Wake Forest star as a homegrown player in the wake of the Union being denied rights to Keegan Rosenberry.
In the world of smoky backroom wheeling and dealing over undisclosed rules associated with the MLS Homegrown Player Rule, Wake Forest phenom Jack Harrison could end up being a New York City FC homegrown player because he was a part-time player for a youth affiliate of the second-year MLS club.
Harrison, who quit the Manchester United Academy to attend school at the prestigious Berkshire School in Massachusetts, was a guest player for Manhattan Soccer Club for three seasons when he wasn't playing for his high school.
