The Chicago Fire signed fullback Miguel Navarro to a new contract. Navarro is under contract with the Fire through the 2024 season with a club option for 2025.
Navarro, 22, is from Venezuela, but will not occupy an international slot on the club’s 2022 roster after receiving his U.S. Green Card earlier this year.
“Signing Miguel to a new contract was a priority for us as we believe that he has outperformed his initial deal over the past two seasons,” Sporting Director Georg Heitz said in a statement. “Since arriving to the Club, Miguel has adjusted well to the demands of the league and has worked hard to consistently earn his place in the starting lineup.
