He’s the captain. He’s the reigning MVP. He’s El Guaje.
Ever since David Villa first donned the New York City FC blue, he has been nothing short of spectacular for the club, both on and off the pitch.
He’s been even better than advertised as a captain, an ambassador, and everything else you might expect from a Designated Player blazing his trail stateside. And in his third season in Major League Soccer, he might just be putting in his best performance yet.
In Villa’s first two seasons with NYCFC, he knocked in an impressive 41 goals and tallied 12 assists in 63 games played, per mlssoccer.
