Sacha Kljestan, Dax McCarty, and Luis Robles have been named to the U.S. Men's National Team January Camp by head coach Bruce Arena.

Players will report to the National Training Center on January 10.

Kljestan, McCarty, and Robles are among 32 players, representing 15 different Major League Soccer clubs, invited to the January Camp.

The New York Red Bulls announced the list of players they are protecting in advance of the MLS Expansion Draft. 

The 11 players are Luis Robles, Ryan Meara, Kemar Lawrence, Dax McCarty, Sacha Kljestan, Felipe, Mike Grella, Daniel Royer, Gonzalo Veron, Aurelien Collin and Bradley Wright-Phillips. The club's six Homegrown players are automatically protected.

New MLS sides Atlanta United and Minnesota United will each select five players on Tuesday, December 13^th. Only one player can be selected from each team.

Last week, Jurgen Klinsmann was fired as the head coach and technical director of the United States men's national team. While he expanded the national team pool, there have been criticisms made of his inability to call up certain players, especially those in MLS who could potentially help.

Bruce Arena was hired to replace Klinsmann. The 65-year old American is returning to the position he held from 1998 through 2006, a tenure that includes a trip to the 2002 World Cup quarterfinals. Arena has not shied away from his appreciation of the domestic player pool, and several Red Bulls players could benefit.

1) Sacha Kljestan

Sacha Kljestan worked his way into the national team picture at the end of Klinsmann's tenure. After being banished for two years, he received a fortuitous call up in September and thrived in friendlies. Despite playing very limited minutes in November's World Cup Qualifiers, he will most likely continue to be a key piece for the USMNT going forward.

The New York Red Bulls announced several roster moves heading into the 2017 season.

Sean Davis, Chris Duvall, and Justin Bilyeu had their contract options picked up. MLS leading scorer Bradley Wright-Phillips also had his contract option exercised.

Defenders Karl Ouimette and Ronald Zubar did not have their options picked up. According to Sporting Director Ali Curtis, the team is in negotiations to bring back Zubar next season.

Even though the New York Red Bulls lost to the Montreal Impact and were eliminated from the 2016 MLS Cup Playoffs, Dax McCarty reached another historic milestone with the club. The captain made his 198th all-time appearance, surpassing club legend Mike Petke.

McCarty previously set the club record for regular season matches started and all-time minutes played. There's one milestone left, the club's regular season appearance record, which he'll set the next time he steps on the field in a MLS match.

The Red Bulls were beaten in the 2016 MLS Cup Playoffs before they stepped on the field.

There is no way the front office could have known, neither could have Jesse Marsch. The players certainly didn't know, but that doesn't make it any less true. The Montreal Impact knew how they were going to beat the Red Bulls, and they were built this season to execute it. 

"We knew they're a weak team in the playoffs," Ignacio Piatti, a striker for the Impact told reporters after the match. "They showed that last year, this year."

The New York Red Bulls are built on a pressing system. It is controlled chaos that works to exploit teams by catching them off guard when they turn the ball over, especially close to the opponent's goal. The Red Bulls have employed this system for two years, presenting plenty of opportunities for teams to learn how to neutralize it.

Fresh off a hard fought 1-0 victory over the New England Revolution, the New York Red Bulls are headed across the country to take on the Vancouver Whitecaps.

With seven regular season matches remaining, the Red Bulls find themselves in a comfortable third place in the Eastern Conference. They're only three points out of the top spot, while currently enjoying a nine-match unbeaten streak.

It's been a tumultuous season due to a succession of devastating injuries and disastrous collapses, but the Red Bulls have weathered most of the storms. Damien Perrinelle and Dax McCarty appear to have made successful returns from injury, which will enable the club to put its best foot forward in the CONCACAF Champions League and MLS Cup Playoffs.

New York Red Bulls captain Dax McCarty will miss 4-6 weeks with a fractured tibia, he said on Twitter. He will not require surgery.

The MLS offseason generally meant turmoil for the New York Red Bulls because of roster changes and new coaches.

But after posting a league-best 18-10-6 record and winning the MLS Supporters' Shield, the revolving door has stopped.

"There was always this uncertainty going into the postseason," said midfielder Dax McCarty, who has played five years with the club and earned MLS Best XI last season. "But this new regime came in and wanted to build a solid foundation for the future. The big thing was that they wanted to bring people back."

The New York Red Bulls and Philadelphia Union played to a scoreless draw on Wednesday night in preseason action.

This was New York's final preseason game against an MLS team. They will face NASL's Jacksonville Armada before their season opener at home on Sunday, March 6, against Toronto FC.

The New York Red Bulls have signed captain Dax McCarty to a multi-year extension as part of a flurry of moves, the team announced.

The team also inked Felipe to a multi-year deal and signed defender Damien Perrinelle to an MLS contract.

Per club and league policy, terms of the deals were not disclosed.
