Belgian centre-forward Hugo Cuypers, 29, hinted at a potential return to Belgium, stating that while he is performing and is physically in top condition, they are far from family and friends, and the time difference makes communication with Belgium difficult, which has started to weigh on them after two years. Cuypers also mentioned he has a contract until the end of the season in MLS, with the club holding an option to extend, but there is no clarity yet. The striker, who joined Chicago Fire FC in February 2024, has 4 goals in 4 Major League Soccer appearances this season. Cuypers, who has 4 caps and 1 goal for Belgium's U19 team, has a current market value of €9.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
