Chicago Fire FC is engaged in “preliminary negotiations” with Brazil soccer legend Neymar, according to multiple reports.

Brazil superstar and Al Hilal attacker Neymar is in preliminary talks with three MLS sides, including Chicago Fire FC, over a proposed move, sources have told ESPN.

Neymar could join Lionel Messi in MLS but the Brazilian superstar has reportedly stunned Chicago Fire after demanding a contract more lucrative than that of his former Barcelona teammate.
