Red Bulls to face FIFA sanctions?

Rating: 2(Possible)

mega2.jpgReports out of Puerto Rico suggest that Red Bull New York have told Forward Chris Megaloudis that he cannot join Puerto Rico for their World Cup qualifier 2nd leg June 14th against Honduras. RBNY cannot deny Megaloudis the ability to play for his national team under FIFA regulations, and could face potential sanctions. The 24 year old Striker joined RBNY this season after playing 3 years in USL, he has yet to make a league appearance. Megaloudis has 5 caps to date with Puerto Rico, who lost the first leg of the fixture to Honduras, by a 4-0 scoreline. After the departure of starlet Jozy Altidore, RBNY are short on striker, and this might be the reason behind the denial. We will keep you updated on this story, make sure to check back often.What do you think? Was RBNY right or wrong to deny megaloudis?  UPDATE: It looks like the situation between Megaloudis and RBNY has been worked out and he has been allowed to  join Puerto Rico. According to the Red Bull media guide he is listed as away on international duty, we’ll be able to confirm at the start of the game tonight, but it looks like everything has been worked out.
