Bradley's appointment comes six months after he took over the club's MLS NEXT Pro side, New York Red Bulls II, for his first professional head coaching position. He led RBNY II to the 2025 MLS NEXT Pro title."
"Bradley, a former midfielder, who had a 20-year club career that spanned MLS and international teams such as AS Roma, Aston Villa, Borussia Mönchengladbach, Chievo Verona and Heerenveen, is the third-most capped USMNT player in the program's history with 151, behind Landon Donovan and Cobi Jones. He played at the 2010 and 2014 World Cups."
""I am excited for the opportunity to be head coach of the club that I started my professional career with and also in the state that I call home," Bradley said. "I'm looking forward to working alongside everyone here and doing my part to help this club achieve the success our fans deserve.""
