Robert Lewandowski Nears Potential Transfer to Chicago Fire

Polish striker Robert Lewandowski is in Chicago meeting officials from MLS club Chicago Fire about a possible move after leaving FC Barcelona. The club is reported to have offered a contract worth €15‑20 million per season, with a two‑year deal and an option for a further year, along with a family package that includes schooling for his children and a fitness studio for his wife. Chicago Fire is also preparing a new stadium slated for opening in 2028 and hopes Lewandowski would become a marquee player for the project.

Several sources note that other suitors, including clubs from Europe and Saudi Arabia, have shown interest, but the Chicago proposal appears to be the most advanced. Former U.S. internationals Paul Caligiuri and Clint Mathis have publicly expressed both enthusiasm for Lewandowski joining MLS and personal reservations about him choosing Chicago.

Meanwhile, Lewandowski’s wife, fitness trainer Anna Lewandowska, posted a bikini photo on Instagram showcasing her summer‑ready physique. The post attracted numerous complimentary comments and highlighted the couple’s high public profile as Lewandowski’s transfer saga unfolds.
