There were some key departures with Robert Beric going to FC Cincinnati and Djordje Mihailovic heading to the Montreal Impact, but Berhalter has brought in some exciting new additions. Attacking midfielder Daniel Rios has joined from Monterrey, while forward Jairo Torres has signed from Atlas. These new signings will add a spark to the Fire’s attack and provide some much-needed depth to the squad. With Berhalter’s tactical acumen and the new additions to the roster, Chicago Fire fans have reason to be optimistic about the upcoming season.
One player to keep an eye on is midfielder Paxton Pomykal, who has shown flashes of brilliance in the past and could be a breakout star for the Fire this season. With a solid core of veterans like Gaston Gimenez and Francisco Calvo, as well as promising young talent like Brian Gutierrez, Chicago Fire could surprise a lot of people this season.
