  • Dancing La Bamba: Chicago Fire sign winger Jonathan Bamba
    Jan 21 2025

    Hey, soccer fans! Do you feel like dancing? Amidst the Neymar transfer talk, the Chicago Fire have signed winger Jonathan Bamba to a Designated Player contract. Bamba comes to the Fire after two season with La Liga side Celta de Vigo, previously playing in Belgium and France. The Ivory Coast international will play a key role in providing service to Hugo Cuypers and sparking the Fire's attack.

    Our host also updates you on the latest in the Neymar transfer saga. Will he end up with Chicago or return to his boyhood club Santos? Or is Neymar trying to tank the talks with the Men in Red to open the door for him to sign with Inter Miami and reunite with Barcelona teammates Leo Messi and Luis Suarez?

    Finally, we wrap the show by looking at Brian Gutierrez performance in his first call-up for the USMNT, a 73 minute "safe" performance against Venezuela. Hopefully, this is the first of many for the Fire homegrown.

  • Reinforcements Arrive: Chicago Fire Bolster their Defense
    Jan 14 2025

    Hey, soccer fans! Does anyone at the Chicago Fire take a day off? The club recently announced two new signings, both defenders that are sure to bolster the backline for the 2025 season. First, the Men in Red have signed Sam Rogers, a player that Gregg Berhalter gave a USMNT appearance in 2023. He has proven himself a solid player in Norway and USL, and hopefully his game will translate to Major League Soccer. The Fire also signed Portuguese youth international Leonardo Barroso. Barroso has a wealth of youth experience playing for Portugal and Sporting CP B, and will be part of the next generation of great Fire defenders - or the next great Fire transfer.

    In the second half, Nick looks at how these signings allowed Wyatt Ombserg to sign with the New England Revolution. We also discuss the financial issues that put the Philadelphia Union on the FIFA transfer ban list. Tune in for all this and more!
