D.J. Taylor has said yes to Chicago Fire
The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Minnesota United FC have lost him in all but the paperwork.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
Minnesota United FC close the window on a squad of their own making
14 in and 0 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Minnesota United FC to lose D.J. Taylor for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. D.J. Taylor has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

“The easiest signature of my career.” Joaquín Pereyra and Minnesota United FC agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Minnesota United FC baulk at the price for Blake Gillingham
