Del Bosque shrugs off David Villa completing New York City FC move

Spain coach Vicente del Bosque has no problem with David Villa completing his transfer from Atletico Madrid during their World Cup preparations.

Villa has signed for New York City FC, but will spend the first-half of next term on-loan in Australia with Melbourne City.

Del Bosque said: "We are specifically focused on the World Cup, not what is in their future.

"They have their own agents who look after their interests and it's been a fact that several players that were in our league are leaving to other leagues - David's situation is not unique."
