With the splashy hire, the MLS side enters a new era in the Windy City.
Berhalter most recently served as the U.S. men's national team manager on two separate occasions, after he previously impressed in his first MLS stint with Columbus Crew.to a 46-31-46 record in five full seasons in charge, leading the team to five MLS Cup playoff appearances during his tenure as head coach and sporting director. The Crew came close to lifting MLS Cup in 2015 with Berhalter in charge, but the team fell just short losing, 2–1, in the final vs. Portland Timbers.
Berhalter lifted two CONCACAF Nations League titles and one Gold Cup title during his tenure as USMNT head coach but ultimately couldn't help the current crop of players take the next step as a leading international team. "I'm honored to be named Director of Football and Head Coach of the Chicago Fire, and I would like to thank Joe Mansueto for his trust," Berhalter said. "Chicago is an incredible city, built on communities of hard-working and passionate people who truly love soccer. I look forward to working alongside our staff and players to transform the Fire into a world-class organization that all our fans and the city can be proud of and will support.
