Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano also reported the news:
🚨💣 EXCLUSIVE: Robert Lewandowski to Chicago Fire, HERE WE GO! 🇺🇸
The Polish striker has agreed to join Chicago Fire after visiting the club and city two weeks ago.
Lewandowski will sign early next week, ready for new chapter in MLS.
Big move. 🔥🇵🇱
Lewandowski could do some major damage in MLS, though getting the kind of service that he is accustomed to at places like Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich, and FC Barcelona could prove to be difficult. Long rumored to have a desire to play in the United States, most observers assumed that Lewandowski would land with the LAFC or the LA Galaxy because of his affinity for Los Angeles, but the Fire were able to woo him to the Windy City if the reports from Plettenberg and Romano are true.
