HARRISON, N.J. -- Richard Sánchez may be a young goalkeeper with just eight matches in MLS under his belt.
But the 24-year-old Chicago Fire netminder has a chance to not only be the goalkeeper of the present for the Fire, but also the future.
That possibility was on full display in his last performance on Saturday, when he stood on his head several times in helping to spearhead a 2-1 road win over the New York Red Bulls, showing off both his present ability and his future potential.
The Fire have been very strongly linked with longtime Spanish national team goalkeeper Iker Casillas, who the past two summers has been mentioned in reports as a potential MLS signing.
