As impressive as Domé Torrent’s run has been with New York City FC to this point, it’s worth noting that it has been done without the services of captain and all-time NYCFC leading goal scorer David Villa.
Unfortunately, Torrent’s City will have to continue to make due without El Guaje for at least one more week.
NYCFC have announced that Villa — who sustained a knee injury last month in a game against Toronto FC — has withdrawn from the MLS All-Star game against Juventus tomorrow night. Per MLS rules, Villa will also be forced to miss NYCFC’s next contest against the Vancouver Whitecaps this Saturday.
