Ex-Man City, Southampton striker Bradley Wright-Phillips urges English players to make MLS move

New York Red Bulls striker Bradley Wright-Phillips is encouraging more English players to join him in MLS.

The former Manchester City and Southampton forward netted 27 goals last season - which matched the record goal-scoring tally for one season.

"For sure, players get really well looked after here," Wright-Phillips said in an interview with the FA.

"There's a union that is looking to put things into action to help players get better contracts, and there's a lot of things to look forward to.

"The standard is high, and it's definitely one place you have to try.

"For me, I didn't know anything about it, but I took the chance and I'm having a great time."
