NYRB re-sign ex-Boulogne defender Perrinelle, add Jean-Baptiste, ex-Marseille, Wolves man Zubar

New York Red Bulls have made a trio of defensive signings on Tuesday to reinforce things at the back.

Frenchman Damien Perrinelle has been re-signed by the club after seeing his option fall by the wayside at the end of the 2014 MLS season.

The 31-year old former Boulogne and Clermont Foot defender joined the Red Bulls in July last year and made six appearances in all competitions last term.

Joining Perrinelle at the Red Bull Arena for the 2015 campaign is 22-year old New York native Andrew Jean-Baptiste who spent last season with Chivas USA following stints with Portland Timbers and Los Angeles Blues.

The Red Bulls have also acquired former Caen, Marseille and Wolves centre-back Ronald Zubar who has been with AJ Ajaccio since January 2013.
