Chicago Fire have added Brazilian midfielder Alex Monteiro De Lima to their roster.
The 23-year old, who trialed with Chicago during pre-season, has joined the Fire as a free agent after spending most of the last two seasons with Swiss club FC Wohlen and will be available when the transfer window opens on June 27.
"After having the opportunity to see him play for Wohlen last year, Alex joined us for part of our preseason, where he showed the ability to contribute to our club.""Alex is a special player that we're proud to add to our roster," Fire head coach Frank Klopas said in a statement.
