Striker Marco Borriello is yet again looking for a new club to call home, and this time it may end up being in Major League Soccer.

A report has emerged that New York Red Bulls, Montreal Impact and LA Galaxy are all in negotiations with the 33-year-old Serie A veteran. Another surfaced shortly after linking the striker to New York City FC.



Borriello most recently played for Serie A club Carpi, where he scored four goals this season. He returned to the league he debuted in after a short loan stint with West Ham United, which did not go as planned. He appeared only twice for the Irons before sustaining a calf injury. On the final day of the January 2015 transfer window, he was able to secure a transfer back to Genoa.

According to the report, the player’s agent, Andrea D’Amico, stated that Borriello has several options on the table. “He is still hungry and has more he can achieve in his career. It’s true MLS is a possibility.”

Since the end of the 2015 MLS season, the Red Bulls have been linked with Junior Flemming, Alan Pulido, and now Boriello. If the rumors are true, it seems the Red Bulls could be in the market for depth up front. Despite the need for depth, Borriello seems to be another outlier at 33-years-old. With New York’s commitment to youth, it is unclear how Borriello, a seasoned vet, would fit in with coach Jesse Marsch’s game plan.

On the other side of the Hudson, NYCFC originally sought a veteran partner to accompany David Villa up top. That may continue to be a priority this offseason.
