Veljko Paunovic may have a couple of familiar faces in his Starting XI when he leads the 2017 MLS All-Stars against Real Madrid (August 2, Soldier Field).
Two of the Chicago Fire manager's leading stars are currently among the leading vote-getters for the Fan XI. Nemanja Nikolic is Major League Soccer's top goal-scorer (12) and its top vote-getter among forwards while Bastian Schweinsteiger ranks No. 2 among MLS midfielders.
Nikolic also stands fifth in the EA SPORTS "More Than A Vote Challenge," which counts votes via goals scored by the player in EA SPORTS FIFA 17 and will be used to determine the third and final forward.
