BIOGRAPHY
Playing for Chicago Fire in the MLS, H. Cuypers continues to build on a solid professional career. Born in Liège, Belgium, he carries the footballing culture of his homeland into every match he plays. Standing at 185 cm and weighing 75 kg, this forward has the physical tools to compete at the highest level. His explosiveness and technical quality allow him to unsettle even the most organised defensive units. The move from Gent to Chicago Fire (€ 12M) in 2024 marked a pivotal moment in his professional development. The silverware in his career — notably Cup, Super League 1 — confirms his ability to perform in the biggest moments. The 2025/2026 season provides him with the opportunity to consolidate his status within Chicago Fire's first team. Given his performances, H. Cuypers naturally asserts himself as a key part of Chicago Fire's sporting project.
