Martín Pérez cleared waivers and elected free agency after being designated for assignment by the Atlanta Braves.
The contract is pending the receipt of Gill's International Transfer Certificate (ITC). "Adrian is a young midfielder with U.S. youth national team experience whose development path led him to one of the top academies in the world at Barcelona," Atlanta chief soccer officer and sporting director Chris Henderson said in a news release. "We're pleased to welcome him to the club and add more competition to our group of midfielders."
