Recipe for Success | Nemanja Nikolic's gluten-free diet fuels on-field performance

In Chicago, home for Nemanja Nikolic is a lovely 40th-floor Streeterville apartment that overlooks Navy Pier. The Fire striker moved into the building a few months ago at the recommendation of a teammate.

So far it’s been an ideal fit. He enjoys the great views of Lake Michigan and its central location – close to Millennium Park when he wants to relax with his wife and kids, and an easy commute to Toyota Park for training and games.

For 'Niko' and his family – wife Nóra, 6-year old daughter Tijana and 3-year old son Marko – home is actually thousands of miles away.
