Red Bulls star Lewis Morgan will remain with the organization for the foreseeable future.
Morgan signed a two-year contract extension on Monday that includes options for the 2027 and 2028 seasons, The Post confirmed.
Soccer insider Tom Bogert first reported the deal.
The Scottish player had one year remaining on his contract, with a team option for 2026. He was coming off his most successful season with the MLS team.
At 28 years old, Morgan had his best season in 2024, scoring 13 goals and providing seven assists, his highest since his time with Inter Miami in 2020.
After a challenging 2023 season where he only made five appearances due to an injury, the Red Bulls forward had a remarkable comeback year, displaying great determination and focus.
The bounceback season earned him Comeback Player of the Year honors and drew plenty of overseas intrigue for Morgan, who has instead opted to remain with the Red Bulls after the club made its first MLS Cup appearance since 2008 last season.
Morgan is expected to be a big part of the Red Bulls’ offense in the upcoming season as the team still looks for its first-ever league championship.
The Red Bulls have had a short, yet eventful, offseasons with several big names departing and the team adding several new pieces in recent weeks.
The organization announced the signing of Canadian defender Raheem Edwards to replace defender John Toklin, who went to German club Holstein Kiel in the Bundesliga.
The Red Bulls also added Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting in mid-December.
Additionally, the team has been linked to German striker Timo Werner, who is currently playing for Premier League side Tottenham on loan from RB Leipzig.
According to a report from amNewYork, talks about Werner joining the Red Bulls have taken place and the situation remains fluid.
