Miguel Ibarra adds experience and quality to Seattle Sounders roster ahead of 2020 season

The club announced the signing of MLS veteran attacking player Miguel Ibarra on Tuesday.

Ibarra, 29, brings an expansive pedigree to Seattle’s attacking midfield corps, boasting a resume that includes stints in the NASL, Liga MX and MLS.

“Miguel has fit into the group very well,” Head Coach Brian Schmetzer said in a conference call with reporters on Tuesday. “He’s an experienced MLS player. If the deal happens, if he signs with us, I would be very happy.”

Joining the Sounders in Mexico for preseason as a trialist, Ibarra impressed the coaching staff with his technical quality and attacking verve.
