Does Red Bull Own New York Red Bulls?
In 2006, the team was sold to Red Bull GmbH and re-branded as part of the company’s global network of soccer clubs, hence its current name.

In addition to purchasing the team, Red Bull bought out AEG’s $100 million share of the stadium, an after-effect of lasting disagreements between the two corporations regarding their plans for the facility.
Their differences prompted a significant delay in the early stages of the stadium’s construction.
After the naming rights of the soccer team were acquired, leading to the name Red Bull Park, Red Bull instituted a number of changes to the stadium’s original design, which sparked tension between the Austrian-based energy drink company and AEG.
Red Bull opted out of AEG’s plan to construct a stage in the stadium for performances, one that would have increased profit margins for the group.
