09/03/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chicago Fire forward Brian McBride will retire at the end of the 2010 season, the Major League Soccer team announced on Friday.
"Brian's retirement is a bittersweet moment for the Fire, Major League Soccer and soccer fans around the world," Chicago Fire owner Andrew Hauptman said. "His talent and contributions to U.S. soccer in particular are incredibly vast and he will most deservedly be celebrated as one of this country's greatest. Brian is a consummate professional on-and off-the-field and has tremendous passion and heart. I have great respect for him and his decision to retire, which no doubt was not an easy one. He will always have a home here at the Chicago Fire and be part of the Fire family."
The 38-year-old McBride, who was the number one selection in the MLS's inaugural player draft in 1996, has appeared in 211 games, scoring 78 goals and adding 51 assists over the course of his 11-year MLS career with the Chicago Fire and Columbus Crew.
In between stints with the Crew and Fire, McBride played four-and-a-half years with English Premier League club Fulham FC where he scored 40 goals in 153 appearances.
On top of his club career, McBride is one of the most decorated players in U.S. Soccer history, scoring 30 goals in 95 appearances for the U.S. men's national team from 1993-2006, including three appearances in the FIFA World Cup.
"Brian is one of the cornerstones of American soccer," Fire Technical Director Frank Klopas said. "Since joining the Fire, and returning to Chicago, he has shown the characteristics that have made him a success on every level of soccer in this country. He is a consummate professional and embodies everything that is good in the game. His leadership, everlasting commitment and work ethic on the field are parallel to his impact off of it. We wish Brian and his family the best of luck as he takes this next step in life."
