Re: David Villa Done Deal!
CITY TO LAND £52M VILLA
Mark Hughes will sign Valencia striker in January
DAVID VILLA - will join City
By DAVID HARRISON, 06/12/2008
DAVID VILLA’S record £52million switch to Manchester City will move a step closer when his agent jets into England this week.
The Valencia striker will be City’s first world-class signing in January when the transfer window opens.
City boss Mark Hughes has targeted the Spanish hit-man and the deal has been rubber-stamped by City’s Arab owners.
They are determined to make an impact signing in the transfer window and will take advantage of Valencia’s perilous financial position.
The Spanish side have been hit badly by the global economic crisis and admitted they will be forced to cash in on their major asset in the New Year.
Real Madrid believed they were in pole position but signed £17m Ajax star Klass-Jan Huntelaar in midweek — and City surged ahead when they made it clear they would instantly match Valencia’s asking price.
Contract
Villa will join Robinho as the Premier League’s top wage earner on £160,000-a-week as City’s Abu Dhabi owners make good on their promise to buy the world’s best.
Reports in Spain claimed City representatives have met twice met with Villa’s agent, Jose Luis Tamargo, in Madrid to discuss the move.
Villa, who turned 27 on Wednesday, has a £125m compensation clause built into his contract at Valencia but the club are so cash-strapped they have been forced to waive that in the face of City’s interest.
And while he signed a new contract in the summer which ties him to Valencia until 2014, he knows he has no option but to move on.
Impressed
He said: “I will stay at Valencia for as long as the president wants me. If he tells me I have to be sold to save the club, then that is his decision and I’ll look for a fresh challenge.â€
Villa was the top scorer at Euro 2008 with four goals and is also second top scorer in La Liga behind Samuel Eto’o.
A source close to the deal said: “It is clear City need a world-class striker and Villa fits the bill.
“The Arabs have been impressed with him and Mark Hughes is convinced he will do well in English football.
“His agent will be flying in on Tuesday and there is every chance talks and a deal will be concluded by the end of the week.â€
Now 2 things City officials met with villa's agent in Madrid, my post a 2-3 weeks ago my old man said city where in Madrid.
As far as im concerned the deal with city and valecia is done i was also told villa had agreed to join, so dont know why his agent is to fly to england.

Re: David Villa Done Deal!
All jokes aside am I the only one that doesn't want to see us paying well over the odds for players? David Villa is not worth £52 million, he is the poor relation of the Spanish strike force and Torres went for £27 mill.
Don't get me wrong he is a very very good player. I know people will say "It's not my money who cares" But I don't like the idea of every little tin pot outfit thinking they can fleece us, I reckon that Villa would be up for around £30 mill £35 tops if it was anyone else, forget about release clauses etc Valencia are on their arse and need to sell an dthis fee is vastly inflated

I don't think you no that much about him, better than Torres from all reports, also the players that are linked are top players, at the moment whilst the owners are trying to establish us as a top club, we will pay over the odds

Re: David Villa Done Deal!
I kind of agree, but if we bid £50million, no other club can match that. Valencia are not going to accept lower bids if we go for £50million. Unless Villa absolutely refuses to come to us, theoretically we should get him if we do bid that much. Also i think Villa is better than Torres.
