The right back joins the expansion side after spending two seasons in Seattle.
Atlanta United has announced it has signed fullback Tyrone Mears. Atlanta previously acquired Mears’ rights from Seattle in exchange for $50,000 in general allocation money.
Mears, 33, spent the past two seasons with the Sounders, helping the club win the 2016 MLS Cup. The English defender was a stalwart in Seattle, starting 65 of the team's 68 league matches in 2015 and 2016.
