Petke happy QPR winger Wright-Phillips wants New York Red Bulls move

New York Red Bulls coach Mike Petke is delighted to hear QPR winger Shaun Wright-Phillips is keen on joining the club.

Former Chelsea and Manchester City star SWP's brother Bradley plays for NYRB.

"I did read an article about him potentially being interesting in MLS. I had no idea about any statement about him wanting to play with us or with his brother. Nothing came across my desk,'' Petke told the New York Post.

"It's such a testament to the league with these players, [Clint] Dempsey last year and Michael Bradley. It's an attractive destination for big-time European players and U.S. National Team players returning. It doesn't surprise me, but no one has talked with me. Nothing. Not at this moment.''
