Man Utd outcast Schweinsteiger meets with Chicago Fire boss Paunovic

Manchester United outcast Bastian Schweinsteiger is in talks with Chicago Fire.

The Daily Star says he has been snapped having dinner with Chicago Fire boss Veljko Paunovic.

Schweinsteiger has been heavily linked with a move to MLS and Chicago Fire could be emerging as a front runner for his signature.

United have attempted to pay off the World Cup winner but he has rejected their £9.6m offer.

By doing so he has made it clear he is happy to sit around and pick up the full amount owed to him over the remaining 18 months of his contract.
