The Cameroonian international, with 73 caps and 20 goals to his name but absent from national team call-ups since last June, has completed his medical examination without issue. He has signed a two-year contract set to begin in January 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.afriquesports.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/11\/image-98-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-800618\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.afriquesports.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/11\/image-98-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.afriquesports.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/11\/image-98-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.afriquesports.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/11\/image-98-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.afriquesports.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/11\/image-98.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting does indeed join the New York Red Bulls, it will mark the eighth club of his career and a significant step into uncharted territory. So far, his journey has been largely centered in Germany, with notable stints in England (Stoke City) and France with PSG. At the Red Bulls, he will join fellow Africans Mohammed Sofo and Ronald Donkor, the only other players from the continent in a team currently ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This move could also reignite Choupo-Moting\u2019s international career. After being sidelined by former coach Rigobert Song, he briefly returned under Marc Brys but was last called up in June without making an appearance. A strong comeback on the pitch could pave the way for him to reclaim his spot in the national team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting may not remain without a club for much longer.
