Real Salt Lake announced Monday the signing of forward Chad Barrett, who joins the Utah side as a free agent. 

“Chad is a hard-working competitor with a nose for the goal,” RSL general manager Craig Waibel said said in a team statement.  “He’s proven throughout his career that he can be an impact player either as a starter or off the bench and we’re happy to add him to the locker room.”
