Chris Mueller
29-Year-Old
Chicago Fire
MLS
OUT
Injury Chest
Est. Return 1/1/2026

Signs extension
Mueller (chest) signed an extension with Chicago for 2026, the club announced.
ANALYSIS
Mueller officially went down for the season in July due to a chest injury, but was brought back for 2026. The midfielder has been productive in Chicago, though he hasn't reached the same heights he did with Orlando. He will be back in 2026 after a full year on the sideline, but a new contract at this point in his recovery clearly means the club thinks he can get back to his best.
