HARRISON, N.J. - Red Bulls Academy product Davi Alexandre has been selected for his first MLS NEXT All-Star game, the league announced today. Alexandre had participated in a majority of matches for the U17 side in MLS NEXT league play and earned a spot on the All-Star roster this summer.

The defender has also made multiple appearances for the United States Youth National team, having recently been featured in the U16 side for the 2023 International Dream Cup in Fukushima, Japan. Alexandre has also been called up for multiple training camps with the Youth National Team, the most recent being in Florida this past January.
