Chicago Fire Optimistic Following Discussions with Barcelona Forward Lewandowski
Lewandowski’s Future Remains Uncertain as Contract Nears Expiration
Barcelona Negotiations Yet to Begin
As the season draws to a close, Robert Lewandowski finds himself without a contract with FC Barcelona. Discussions regarding a potential contract renewal between the player and the club management have not yet taken place.
Chicago Fire Talks Advance
Recently, Lewandowski has made contact with representatives from Chicago Fire about a possible transfer to Major League Soccer in the coming year. Reports from BBC Sport indicate that these conversations have been progressing positively.
Fire’s Strategy for Signing Lewandowski
- The Chicago Fire have included Lewandowski on their ‘discovery list’. This means that no other clubs within the league are permitted to sign him unless they compensate the Fire.
While the 37-year-old striker could still opt to extend his stay with Barcelona, he is also attracting interest from teams in the Saudi Pro League. Nevertheless, the leadership at Chicago Fire appears increasingly optimistic about their chances of acquiring Lewandowski for next season.
