After not making into the 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs and ending the clubs' longest Playoff appearance streak, the team made major adjustments on the team's leadership. Sandro Schwarz would not return to the team for 2026, officially marking an end to his two-year tenure with the Red Bulls. Julian de Guzman, who was the sporting director was promoted to Head of Sport. In December 2025, former Red Bulls player Michael Bradley was hired as permanent head coach for the 2026 season.^[1]
