New York Red Bulls Mock Draft
Major League Soccer Mock Draft • 2026 Season
New York Red Bulls Draft Analysis
Heading into the draft, the New York Red Bulls find themselves in need of bolstering their attacking options and defensive depth. With the departure of key players and an inconsistent offensive output last season, the Red Bulls should prioritize finding a striker who can convert chances and a versatile midfielder who can control the pace of play. Additionally, strengthening the backline with a reliable center-back would address some of the vulnerabilities that were evident throughout the previous campaign.
Nick Simmonds would be an ideal selection as he can immediately fill the striker role, bringing a proven goal-scoring ability from his time at Virginia. His physicality and sharp finishing make him a natural fit for the Red Bulls' pressing style. On the midfield front, Kwaku Agyabeng stands out as a box-to-box option who can add dynamism and create chances while providing defensive cover. If the Red Bulls look to shore up their defense, Nikola Markovic would be an impressive addition, offering leadership and a strong aerial presence that could significantly enhance the team's backline stability.
