Chicago Fire are in talks over a surprise move to bring Brazil striker Neymar to Major League Soccer. The 32-year-old is out of contract with Al-Hilal in the summer after two years in the Saudi Pro League.

In reality, the deal seems doomed from the beginning, but in this instance, one less global superstar making his way to North America is good news. Neymar, for all his fame and popularity, would be a failed signing for the league.

The Chicago Fire are trying to land Neymar from Saudi club Al Hilal. However, the task will be easier said than done to bring him over.
