They are reported to have paid around 11 million euros ($14 million). The 24-year-old, who was close to making the Spain squad for the World Cup finals, becomes Villarreal's third signing since the end of the season. The modest-Mediterranean outfit have already secured the services of Turkish striker Nihat Kahveci and French midfielder Robert Pires, who were both out of contract. Villarreal lost to Arsenal in the Champions League semi-finals last month and finished seventh in the Primera Liga to earn a place in the Intertoto Cup. soccernet.espn.go.com villarrealcf.es 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
