French Striker Fire-Bound?

The Chicago Fire are in negotiations to bring French striker Fabrice Pancrate to the club from Paris Saint-Germain of Ligue 1, the Chicago Tribune's Luis Arroyave writes on his blog - The Red Card.
Pancrate, 27, is currently on loan to FC Sochaux-Montbeliard from PSG, having also been loaned out to Real Betis of Spain last season, where he scored a single goal in seven appearances for the La Liga side. The 6'1" attacker could be paired up top with Chris Rolfe, but can also be used as a right-sided midfielder under new head coach Denis Hamlett.

"Obviously, we're looking at finding another forward, and finding someone who can help us out a little more on that right side," said team president John Guppy. "I don't think we're done making moves yet."
