Los Angeles Galaxy Ins and Outs, Jan. 13, 2011

Chad Barrett to the G's!

At the NSCAA Convention in Baltimore, Maryland, Bruce Arena and the Los Angeles Galaxy acquired forward Chad Barrett from Toronto FC in exchange for future considerations and allocation money.

A six-year MLS veteran who was raised in Southern California, Barrett has 34 career regular season goals in 147 games with the Chicago Fire and Toronto FC.

Barrett, who played his college soccer at UCLA, began his career with the Fire in 2005 after being selected by the club with the third pick in the first round of that year’s MLS SuperDraft.

Originally coached by current Galaxy Associate Head Coach Dave Sarachan when he joined the Fire, Barrett scored 18 goals in three and a half years with the Fire, including seven in 2007 when he finished as the club’s Golden Boot award winner.

A special on Barrett as part of the "This Is The Los Angeles Galaxy" series has been posted on The View From Victoria Street and on Bleacher Report.

The Galaxy went global in their first selection and took Uruguay's Paolo Cardozo from Quilmes AC as the 16th overall selection. In the second round, the G's took local product and Cal Golden Bears phenom Hector Jimenez as the 34th overall pick.

The club then traded their third-round pick to D.C. United in exchange for their two first-round picks in the Supplemental Draft, to be held next Tuesday, Jan. 18.

The Galaxy will have the 3rd, 16th, 34th and 52nd overall picks in the Supplemental Draft.
