Though Collins John has impressed thus far in his trial with the Fire, the team isn't quite ready to offer him a contract quite yet.
"We're still just looking at him for now," Frank Klopas said of the Dutch striker. "We want to make the best decision for the team as a whole [so we'll wait a little longer]."
I expect that John will eventually be signed by the Fire. Not sure if I expect anything to happen before the March 1st deadline to cut the roster size down to 24 though.

The longer they wait the more likely he doesnt sign. It would be a huge blow if we lose him. It would be a mistake if we let him go.
They should get this done. He proved himself. What are you waiting for?
