One of the Spain’s most decorated football player, David Villa, announced his retirement from International football.
This came as a shocker as he helped his club, Atletico Madrid, to win Spanish League title after 16 years this season.

I don’t like to say it, but yes, obviously this will be my last World Cup and my last games with the selection given my age, my level of performance, and everything I have given the team. It is time.

On Monday last week, Villa signed a three-year contract with New York City FC, becoming the first player to join the expansion Major League Soccer team.

It’s one of the reasons I accepted this offer – because I still have a lot of football left in me, Otherwise I would have gone home. I want to make a name for myself in this part of the world.
