Bradley Wright‑Phillips, one of the most prolific scorers in MLS history, brings his personality and sharp striker insight to MLS on Apple TV as a studio analyst. A key voice on MLS 360, he also appears across MLS Countdown and LS Wrap‑Up, offering in‑studio expertise shaped by nearly 600 professional matches.
Born in London, Wright‑Phillips began his career in the Manchester City Academy and signed his first professional contract at 16. He went on to play in the Premier League with Manchester City and in the Championship with Southampton—part of a long English career that included Plymouth Argyle, Charlton Athletic, and Brentford. Before arriving in MLS, he had already established himself as a proven goalscorer, completing the foundations of a professional journey that would ultimately span 592 appearances and 216 goals across all competitions.
Wright‑Phillips moved to MLS in 2013 and became one of the league’s defining strikers. Over nine seasons (2013-21) with the New York Red Bulls, LAFC, and Columbus, he recorded 117 goals, which ranks seventh all-time, won two Golden Boots, earned two MLS Best XI selections, and helped the Red Bulls capture three Supporters’ Shields (2013, 2015, 2018). He became the fastest player in league history at the time to reach 100 goals, hitting the milestone in just 158 matches. After retiring in 2022, Wright‑Phillips joined the New York Red Bulls front office as Special Assistant to the Sporting Director and transitioned into broadcasting in 2023.
