Frankowski’s green card is official, and two more Fire internationals are close to receiving theirs

Chicago Fire winger Przemyslaw Frankowski has officially received his U.S. green card. Hot Time broke the news that it was happening back in December, and today the club made the official announcement.

A source tells Hot Time that two more Fire players are expected to receive their green cards once they arrive in the U.S. for preseason, bringing the total number of international players on the 2021 roster down to nine. At the moment, the club only has eight available slots for international players. The Fire have a few options for roster compliance, including loaning a player, or buying an international slot from another club.
