Swope Park Rangers sign forward Akeil Barrett

The Swope Park Rangers have signed forward Akeil Barrett, the club announced on Monday. Barrett most recently played for Piteå IF in the Swedish Division 1, having spent the 2015 season with Jacksonville Armada FC in the North American Soccer League.

“I’m just glad to be a part of the team and I look forward to the opportunity to do the best that I can,” Barrett said. “It’s great to be back in America, playing the way that I’m used to. I’m glad to be here and I want to help the team win games.”

“We’re little bit thin in the wide attacking positions,” head coach Marc Dos Santos said.
