LONDON (AP) — The New York Red Bulls have completed the signing of former Manchester City and Chelsea midfielder Shaun Wright-Phillips on a free transfer.
The former England international will join up with his brother Bradley, a striker with the Red Bulls. He is eligible to play against the Philadelphia Union on Saturday.
The 33-year-old Wright-Phillips last played for English club Queens Park Rangers but left when his contract expired at the end of the 2014-15 season.
He also played for Chelsea, where he won the Premier League in 2006, and Manchester City. He made 36 international appearances with England.
Red Bulls coach Jesse Marsch says Wright-Phillips "has performed at the highest levels of the game for his entire career" and "brings a wealth of talent and experience."
