Shaun Wright-Phillips to join brother Bradley at MLS side New York Red Bulls

Former Chelsea and Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips is on the verge of joining the New York Red Bulls.

The midfielder, who cost Chelsea £21m from City in 2005, last played in England for QPR before being released in the summer after an underwhelming time at Loftus Road.

Shaun's younger brother Bradley has been playing in New York since 2013 and there has been speculation over a family reunion for a number of seasons while Shaun was largely out of first-team contention in west London.

Now, having linked up with the US side for training after his QPR exit, the 33-year-old is set to be added to the Red Bulls' roster.

Frank Lampard, signed with Red Bulls' rivals New York City, said about his imminent move: "He's a really good lad, and he's a nice boy, and knowing him as a player and what he can bring to the team, he'll be a good signing."
