The New England Revolution signed free agent defender Wyatt Omsberg to a one-year contract on Tuesday with a club option for 2026.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the team.

"As a veteran defender in our league, Wyatt brings MLS experience to our backline," Revolution head coach Caleb Porter said. "Wyatt also brings added depth to our group of central defenders. I look forward to working with Wyatt and integrating him to our team in the coming weeks as we prepare to kick off the 2025 season."

Omsberg, 29, played in 12 matches (11 starts) last season with the Chicago Fire.

The Maine native recorded one goal and one assist in 67 career matches (47 starts) with Minnesota United and the Fire. He was selected in the first round of the 2018 MLS SuperDraft by Minnesota out of Dartmouth College.

"Wyatt Omsberg is a welcomed addition to our backline, with seven seasons of experience in Major League Soccer and ties to the New England area," Revolution sporting director Curt Onalfo said. "Wyatt will help strengthen our central defense, an area of our roster that we've looked to improve this offseason."

The Revolution will begin the Feb. 22 season at Nashville SC.
