Poland’s all-time leading goal scorer Robert Lewandowski has signed a contract through the 2027-28 campaign with the Chicago Fire, the Major League Soccer club announced on Monday.

The 37-year-old striker arrives from Barcelona after helping the Spanish giants capture the La Liga crown last month having starred from 2014-2022 with Bayern Munich.

Lewandowski has scored more than 700 goals for Poland and his club squads, leading German and Spanish leagues in scoring for eight years.

Lewandowski will play over parts of three campaigns for the Fire, with MLS planning to have a shortened 2027 season ahead of shifting to a football schedule more like other global leagues in 2027-28.
