Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has officially signed with the New York Red Bulls, marking a fresh chapter in his illustrious career after parting ways with Bayern Munich.
The 35-year-old forward, known for his composure and versatility, inked a two-year deal with the MLS side, with an option to extend for another season—pending visa formalities.
The Red Bulls moved swiftly to secure Choupo-Moting, citing his vast experience as a crucial asset. With five Bundesliga titles and a FIFA Club World Cup victory under his belt, the Cameroonian international brings leadership and depth to the team. Club officials view him as an ideal backup option and a mentor for their young attackers, poised to elevate the squad’s offensive dynamics.
Choupo-Moting’s addition signals the Red Bulls’ ambition to blend veteran guidance with youthful energy, aiming to challenge for honors in the MLS. After leaving Bayern as a free agent, the striker embraces this new opportunity in the United States, eager to make his mark on and off the field.
Welcome to the Metro, Choupo 🗽
