The Fire used an open roster spot to sign Bratislav Ristic, 30, a well-travelled midfielder who has been training with the club on a tryout basis. He'll be available for selection once the necessary paperwork is completed.
Ristic helped Club Brugge win the Belgian Cup in 2001-02 and was the assist leader in the Ukrainian first division in 2005-06 while with Metalurh Donetsk. He started his pro career with FC Radnicki in Serbia and also played for clubs in Spain, Russia and Bulgaria.
