'We want to sign him' - MLS side confirm Robert Lewandowski interest

Chicago Fire boss Gregg Berhalter has made it clear his side are hoping to sign Robert Lewandowski this summer.

The 37-year-old is set to become a free agent this summer, ending his prolific four years with La Liga champions Barcelona.

Lewandowski won’t be short of options, with several Italian clubs hoping to sign the Polish veteran, alongside those in Saudi Arabia.

Chicago Fire are hoping to beat them all to the punch and bring him to the USA, confirmed by manager Berhalter.

“I can speak freely because he is no longer a Barcelona player, and he is someone we want to sign,” he said (via Marca).

“We have spoken with Robert Lewandowski and with the people who represent him. I am convinced that a player of his level has other offers on the table, but our communication has been frequent and very positive.”
