David Villa Leaves NYCFC

But no one cares about the mets. For the unusual angle they went with to set the team up, the yankees was the best option. Strange that it hasnt moved on since then though
There are quite a few Mets fans in New York, northern New Jersey and North East Pennsylvania.

Instead, the partnership went to the rags of Major League Baseball. Effectively, that is what the Yankees are similar to.
 
Initial rumours are that Herrera will be the replacement as a DP, but it's likely that he leaves and we re-loan him elsewhere.
 
Don't think so, they seem to have some links to Barca.
That they do, pretty close links, actually, as Rakuten owns them and has heavily invested in Barca. Rumours circulated a few years ago that they were initially trying to invest in City, though, and I wonder if we have some other less direct arrangements in the works with them given CFG obviously gave its blessing to the Villa move (not that they could have stopped it, but they could have made it more difficult than it was by current account).

Just conjecture, of course, but interesting to consider. Watch that space.

Probably just the normal CFG policy of letting older players go on frees and get good contracts for themselves.

Not really true. Mets still enjoy great deal of popularity here. Plus any Yankees fans that support the team right now wouldn't care who they partner up with.
 
According to press reports David Villa has been accused by an intern at NYFC of being
repeatedly sexually harassed during his time in the US and that club bosses failed to act when made aware of the situation.
