It’s a day that we all knew would come, but weren’t emotionally prepared to deal with. A day that always seemed to be in the distant future.
But alas, here were are. The date is November 28, 2018, and our beloved David Villa has announced his departure from New York City FC.
There’s no other way to put it: David Vila wasn’t just a part of NYCFC, he is NYCFC. The club’s first-ever signing back in 2014, Villa always put the club on his back and never made excuses or gave off the impression that he would rather be somewhere else.
