David Villa’s short tenure at Melbourne City came to an end during the weekend after he returned to New York City.
Preparations for the new MLS campaign are underway and this will be the debut campaign for New York City FC, who managed to create a lot of headlines by signing both David Villa and Frank Lampard as their marquee players.
