02/09/2012 - Sandy, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Salt Lake re-signed four players Thursday, including forward Fabian Espindola and midfielder Ned Grabavoy.

Espindola and Grabavoy combined to make 52 appearances, including 46 starts, last season for Real Salt Lake.

"This offseason was perhaps the most challenging in recent years when it came to keeping together the core and identity of Real Salt Lake," said RSL general manager Garth Lagerwey.

"While we could not help but lose some valuable contributors, in ... Espindola and ... Grabavoy we return two players that not only combined for more than 100 starts over the last three seasons, but provide qualities on the field and in the locker room that can't be measured."

The 26-year-old Espindola was signed to a four-year contract, one year after he had 10 goals and three assists.

"It feels great to be able to continue my career with Real Salt Lake. The negotiations were difficult at times, but I'm glad we could come to an agreement that worked out for both myself and the club," said Espindola.

The 28-year-old Grabavoy was signed to a three-year deal. He has started 47 of his 68 regular season appearances for RSL, with three goals and three assists.

"I couldn't be happier to have the opportunity to continue my career with Real Salt Lake, and I'm excited to find myself in a great situation for continued success," said Grabavoy.

Midfielder Yordany Alvarez, 26, and forward Paulo Jr., 23, were also re-signed by RSL. Alvarez signed a three-year contract, and Paulo Jr. was also locked up for the next three seasons.

"With the long-term additions of Yordany Alvarez and Paulo Jr., we lock down two starting-caliber players to provide cover at key positions, depth that will be sorely needed to compete at a high level in every competition we enter," Lagerwey said.

Per club policy, financial terms for the deals will not be disclosed.
