Man City to offer £70M, players for Valencia striker Villa
Manchester City are ready to spend £70 million in the summer for Valencia striker David Villa.
The Daily Star says having been turned down by Kaka in their stunning £100m move, City have now targeted Valencia’s Villa.
They have already been told by the Spanish club there is no way of signing him in the January transfer window.
And that is why they have shown an interest in Chelsea’s Didier Drogba. But City’s owners and chief executive Garry Cook are putting together plans to sign Villa at the end of the season.
City are ready to offer £70m and one of Brazilian pair Elano and Jo for the player.
Valencia chief Fernando Gomez said: “We are calm at the moment, but it is normal for people to be talking about David.
“He is our best striker and we do not want to sell him. But, in football, nothing is impossible.”

Bluenose is that true? City thinks David Villa isn't worth 60mil but they think Kaka is worth what, 200mil? Somebody over there is smokin that shet. David Villa, in my opinion, is the most underrated player out there. I'd rather see him at ManUtd than another EPL club, that's for damn sure. He's capable of winning games on his own!
FUCKK OFF CITY
WHY FUCCKING BOTHER BOUT CITY THEY ARE GOING TO BE THE RICHEST FUCCKING ***** IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP !!!!!
Xan, City's owner already owns a large part of Barclays. He lost £400m on it last week. City already have had pre-contract negotiations for Villa and Silva.
