Hey, soccer fans! New year, new Chicago Fire! The club has been extremely busy in 2025 in building out the attack. Our host Nick provides an update on the transfer fee for new winger Philip Zinckernagel, and how it has allowed Berhalter & Co. to pursue another high level winger, Frenchman Gaetan Perrin. Perrin is a star for French club Auxerre, helping them win promotion to Ligue 1 this season, and continuing his fine form with 5 goals and 4 assists so far. If the deal goes well for the Fire, they'll acquire another TAM-level winger ... and still have two Designated Player (DP) spots available!

In the second half of the show, Nick looks at all the new additions to the Chicago Fire's coaching staff, including four new assistant coaches and a Director of Methodology and Talent Manager. These coaches have experience from all levels of American and international soccer and there will be no lack of ideas on how to get the most out the Men in Red.
