Holgersson declined to renew his contract with Helsingborg that ended at the end of 2011 and will join the Red Bulls on a free transfer.
“It’s a good acquisition for us,” Red Bulls coach Hans Backe told the Swedish Web site FotbollsExpressen.se.
“I’ve had good scores on Mark by Jesper Jansson, and we need a strong physical back to our team. I talked to our general manager a while ago and he said then that Mark had accepted. It remains a visa and little else, but I expect him.”
