Capping off what had been an eventful and insightful Media Day on Thursday, New York City manager Patrick Vieira assured fans in an interview with NYCFC.com that negotiations with striker/captain David Villa regarding extending his current contract are going well, implying that the Spanish forward is likely to return to the Five Boroughs in 2018.
The French gaffer had the following to say about the ongoing negotiations with El Guaje:
David wants to sign. We want to keep him. It’s easy. We don’t want him to go anywhere, his family is really happy – it’s an easy situation.
