Manchester United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger is locked in talks with MLS chiefs.

El Mundo Deportivo says Schweinsteiger and Chicago Fire officials have held talk this weekend about an immediate move to the 'States.

However, with the German now registered with United's squad any deal is likely to have to wait until the summer.

The Bayern Munich legend is close to several directors with the Fire.

Reports in the US claim he is expected to pen a £90,000-a-week deal with MLS outfit Chicago Fire this summer
