In ten seasons at Manchester City, the four-time defending champion, the 33-year-old Belgian scored 189 goals.
When his contract expires at the conclusion of the season, De Bruyne will leave the team, he just confirmed.
De Bruyne is the top target for the struggling Fire. T
he other two teams who made inquiries about the midfield player were NYCFC and D.C. United.
Bruyne and Inter Miami CF had already negotiated, but Lionel Messi has already taken one of their three allotted player places.
The captain of Belgium would rather join the MLS than sign a contract to play in Saudi Arabia, reports Dead Spin.
Furthermore, he did not rule out playing in Europe or the Premier League again as his next endeavor.
Under former U.S. national team coach Gregg Berhalter, Chicago is 3-3-4 with 12 points in 10 games, good for 11th place in the Eastern Conference.
De Bruyne may provide the team with a strong offensive presence by joining fellow countryman Hugo Cuypers, who is tied for the MLS league with seven goals.
