Barcelona Now Favourites In Front Of Real Madrid For David Villa Signature
Thursday 02 July 2009 at 12:16
 David Villa is set to sign for Barcelona, not Real Madrid as it looked a few weeks ago. That is the verdict from the bookies who are betting on where David Villa is playing his football after the summer transfer window shuts.
Barcelona Looking To Villa When They Sell Etoo
Barcelona look by far the most likely club to sign Villa, they can be backed at 13/8 with Paddy Power whilst SkyBet offer just even money. If Man City buy Samuel Etoo from Barcelona then that is only going to increase the chances of Barcelona signing the player who is insistent he wants to stay in Spain.
Madrid Look To Have Moved On
Real Madrid had looked likely to sign Villa in June but it seemed Valencia wanted Madrid to match the sort of money they were spending on Ronaldo and Kaka and Real weren't willing to do that. They have no signed Karim Benzema which makes a move for Villa look unlikely but they are still second favourites to land Villa at 3/1 with Paddy Power and SkyBet.
Where else Could Villa Go?
If Villa doesn't move to Barcelona or Real Madrid then he is likely to stay at Valencia, Skybet offer 3/1 that Valencia keep hold of Villa. If he moves to the Premiership then it is likely to be with money men Man City who are 12/1 with SkyBet. To find out who else Villa could sign for visit either the Paddy Power or SkyBet websites.
