One of the best
forwards of his generation and one of the best Spanish strikers of all time, David
Villa is ready to walk in the snow in January at the end of Japan's J-League
season with Vissel Kobe who is currently playing in the J1 League. Villa has
been playing for Vissel Kobe this year after four seasons in the United States
with New York City. He scored 12 goals this season for Kobe.

The Kid is
the winner of the 2010 World Cup and 2008 European Championship with his country
and very soon calling his 19 year career quits.
This 37-year-old
man wears a crown studded with jewel more than one, two La Liga titles and the
Champions League with Barca. He has played in three world cups and has scored
59 times for Spain. And his feats do not just end here…the third goal for
Barcelona at Wembley in the 3-1 win over Manchester United in the 2010-11
Champions League Final was also scored by him.

David bids
his football career adieu because he does not want to be put out to grass and
he admits of thinking about this minutely for quite some time.
Villa will
become an investor in Queensboro FC, a new franchise located in the New York
district of Queens that will play in the second tier of US football. It was his
dream to build a new professional team and he acknowledges the love that Queens
has always been showering not only on him but also his family during their stay
in New York.
