The 2024 Chicago Fire FC season was the club's 26th year of existence, as well as their 27th season in Major League Soccer. This was the fifth and final season for sporting director Georg Heitz, who would leave following the season's conclusion, as well as the final season for head coach Frank Klopas as head coach- both men would be replaced by Gregg Berhalter following the season's conclusion.[1][2] The Fire ultimately failed to qualify for the playoffs for the seventh season in a row, the longest in team history and longest active streak in MLS.
