Villa to Stay with Valencia
Contracts may not mean much in the footballing world, but the signing of them can send messages. When David Villa signed his contract with Valencia today, a deal with runs through 2014, the message was clear. Villa will not be moving before September 1.
After his showing at the European Championships, there may have been no more discussed player in the transfer market, Andrei Arshavin included. All along, both Valencia and Villa have reiterated their commits to each other, a markedly different situation than the current relationship between Arshavin and Zenit St. Petersburg (or Dimitar Berbatov and Tottenham, or Robinho and Real Madrid - you get the point). Still, the media persisted, seemingly incredulous towards Valencia’s claims they could afford to keep him and David Silva.
With the new contract being inked, the media can move on. Real Madrid, who had been linked with a bid around €40 million, can move on. Tottenham can move on. We can move on - Valencia and Villa can move on. Valencia may still have a debt problem, but it seems they will not use Villa to solve it, and they intend on being a factor in the upcoming La Liga season.
