Teams in some of Europe’s top leagues continue to circle Red Bull New York’s star 18-year-old forward, Julian Hall, but it would take what one source described to amNewYork as a “miracle” for the MLS club to sell the American youngster during this summer’s transfer window.
Sources confirmed to AMNY that Marseille of France’s Ligue 1, Newcastle United of England’s Premier League, and Atletico Madrid of Spain’s La Liga are among teams that are kicking the tires on Hall’s potential availability, though there have been no concrete offers coming in as of yet.
Other interested parties include Red Bull Leipzig of the German Bundesliga and Hull City, also of the Premier League.
Red Bull is not currently motivated to sell one of their finest academy products ever at this time. While he continues his meteoric rise amidst the professional ranks, New York holds an option on his contract for the 2027 season, which would obviously provide more time for his value to increase.
Simply put, Red Bull would need to have its doors blown off to sell Hall this summer.
In what is his first full season in MLS, the New York City native has scored 12 goals with three assists in 22 matches across all competitions. He became the youngest player since 2021, when his now-Red Bull teammate Cade Cowell got the nod, to be selected to Major League Soccer’s All-Star Game.
His play has relegated former Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich veteran Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting to a reserve role. Following a 1-0 loss to Nashville on Wednesday night, New York sits in eighth place in the Eastern Conference — the first of two wild card spots — with 25 points from 20 matches.
