Xavi reportedly set to join New York City FC

Catalan radio has reported that Barcelona star Xavi is set to leave the club this summer to join MLS side New York City FC, along with former teammate David Villa.

Xavi? Whoa

I know right...

David Villa

Lampard Xavi


The foundation for a kickass team! Kaka also joined Orlando City FC, but this is XAVI the maestro. I will be there at Yankee stadium next year

Man City/Yankees co-own this team...that's insane.

What will become of the Redbulls? Is every fan going to jump ship?

Thanks for creating, I have added this thread to the Soccer Forum Directory.

Not sure, but there are core fans there...They play by East Rutherford...in Jersey. I can see alot of CT, NJ and surrounding areas support Red Bulls AND as well as the people who have been fans of that team since the Metrostars days.

I think alot of fans who live in the city and those that also root for the Yankees like myself are jumping ship...I mean I couldnt stand the Red Bulls and I like their stadium but I have never been to a game there.

On the bandwagon.

nice

Thats whats up...spread the word

I have been a very casual Red Bull fan since they were the MetroStars. I've been to plenty of MetroStar games, but only one NYRB game at the new stadium. I hate them because they reshuffle the entire squad in the offseason.

according to google maps I live six minutes closer to Yankee Stadium. Say what you want but I may have to switch my allegiance.

NYCFC !!!!!!!

Xavi is done. Should still be good enough for MLS, though.

Dont understand what Villa wants in the MLS. He still has a couple years left in his tank.

NYCFC finding a good following. Hope they are well supported next season.

Until Henry retires, I'm loyal to the Redbull (because I'm really an Arsenal fan first and foremost)...I thought I read that the Xavi deal was falling through...guess not.

The last time I watched an MLS game was during Toronto FC's inaugural season...that might changed now.

NYC FC present Frank Lampard

very nice

yup saw the press conference, its Lampard.

He might play for a different team untill the MLS season starts for NYFC though, like David Villa.
