RBNY rejects Marquez loan approach

Alas! RBNY rejected the overtures of Mexico's Atlas to loan them Rafael Marquez. "The Red Bulls have him in their plans for next season and want Rafa to continue," Marquez's agent told mediotiempo.com. "It's impossible for him to be with Atlas, unfortunately. The response from the Red Bulls was very clear."

"Until it is completely collapsed, we won't be commenting further," said Atlas' vice president. "What is for sure is that there are three parties in the negotiation, and one of those is the Red Bulls."

"[RBNY] didn't accept it," the agent told ESPN Radio Formula. "It wasn't possible."
