Gabriel Heinze has made his intentions clear during his first transfer window as Atlanta United head coach.

The Fives Stripes announced the signing of midfielder Franco Ibarra on Monday, adding their third Argentine this winter. The 19 year-old joins from Argentinos Juniors for an undisclosed transfer fee.

Ibarra made his first-team debut at the end of 2019 after nine years with the team. His 10 appearances in the 2020-21 season earned Ibarra a call-up to the Argentine Under-20 national team.

The defensive midfielder joins Atlanta after the club traded Eric Remedi to the San Jose Earthquakes earlier in February. Ibarra is the team’s sixth signing this offseason.
