Ex-Fulham striker John flying in Chicago Fire training

Submitted by Andrew Slevison on Mon, 02/08/2010 - 01:03

Former Fulham striker Collins John is flying in training with Chicago Fire according to all reports.

The 24-year old Liberian-born Dutchman is currently on trial with the MLS club after his contract with Belgian club Roeselare was terminated in December.

A report on John’s training included the following: "Collins John looked like a beast today. You can tell he has a good touch even though his timing was bit off. But he is explosive, looks like an [American] football player compared to the rest of the guys. It is hard to see him not making the team, he could be plain dominant in MLS."

John would be a great inclusion to the Fire squad as he has experience in the English Premier League with Fulham as well as time spent with Dutch clubs FC Twente and NEC Nijmegen and lower English outfits Leicester City and Watford.
