DAVID VILLA AGREES TO PLAY WITH NEW YORK CITY ?

Another name has entered the list of speculated players (Costa, Arda, Felipe Luis, Courtois...) that will leave Atletico de Madrid. Spanish International forward David Villa is said to have accepted an offer from American Football Club "New York City". The news comes out from Spanish radio & has been picked up by Spanish Sports daily "AS".

David Villa has 32 years of age & his season with Atletico de Madrid was relatively "quiet" on the goal front. Although Villa worked extremely hard for his team in 47 official games he only managed 15 goals. This figure is relatively low & could signal a tendency that with the years the level of elite Football may be a bit too much to maintain constantly. The news source says that David Villa has agreed to play in the MLS for the next three years.

As with most transfer news exploding onto the front pages at the moment they are speculations & rumour. In the case of Villa he is up for contract renewal & has a huge salary that Atletico de Madrid may not be able to sustain. The American & New York readers may well be correct to be excited in getting the opportunity to see a great Football scorer so close at home. Stay tuned!
