Chicago Fire is making a serious push to sign Robert Lewandowski, continuing its longstanding pursuit of global football icons. The news comes via renowned insider Fabrizio Romano.
Reports indicate the American club is the frontrunner to land the captain of the Polish national team. Once Lewandowski's contract with Barcelona expires, he'll become a free agent, and Chicago Fire is prepared to offer the striker a salary in the region of €20 million per year.
Interestingly, over the past three years, the club had been chasing Neymar, but the Brazilian ultimately chose to return home. Now, Lewandowski has become Chicago Fire's top priority. If negotiations succeed, the Polish forward could emerge as the club's new marquee star and one of the most high-profile players in the entire league.
