07/17/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Fire announced Saturday night they have signed 26-year-old Mexican forward Nery Castillo as a Designated Player.
Chicago announced the signing after its 1-0 loss to the New England Revolution in the SuperLiga at Toyota Park. Castillo has played 21 times for Mexico since 2007, but was not on the FIFA World Cup roster.
"Nery is a young, competitive player who will be a dynamic force on the pitch and we are very excited that he has decided to make the Chicago Fire his new home," said Fire Technical Director Frank Klopas.
Castillo will become available for selection for the Fire upon the receipt of his P1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate. Castillo's first game with Chicago is expected at the Los Angeles Galaxy on Aug. 1.
Castillo will be on loan to Chicago from Ukraine's Shakhtar Donetsk, with the Fire holding an option to complete a permanent transfer.
During his time with Shakhtar from 2007-09, Castillo helped the team capture the UEFA Cup. Castillo previously had loan spells with England's Manchester City and Ukraine's FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk.
"I'm very happy to be joining the Fire, which is a club that I feel embodies the same values that I have as a player," Castillo said. "When I put on a Fire jersey for the first time, my commitment to the fans and to my club will be to score goals, contribute on the pitch and win."
Per MLS and club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
