With MLS SuperDraft week finally upon us, the Chicago Fire soccer operations staff has gathered in Los Angeles to take part in the annual league event that kicks off this Friday, Jan. 14 at 2 pm CT (live stream available via MLSsoccer.com).
To add to what has already been an active offseason from a player acquisition standpoint, the Fire additionally hold the third and 11th overall picks in the first round of this year's draft. That isn't entirely dissimilar to 2016, in which the club ended up selecting in spots four and 12 in the first round after a draft day trade with New York City FC.
