Valencia is the third top Spanish football team behind Real Madrid who are in second place and FC Barcelona who are top of the league.
David Villa Sánchez (nicknamed El Guaje) joined los Che (nickname of the team) in June 2005 for a transfer fee of €12 million.
From 2005-2006 Villa was the second top scorer in La Liga with 25 goals and is also third top scorer of all time in Spanish Football.
In May 2010, David Villa transferred to Barcelona FC for a four-year deal for a fee of €40 million (£34.2 million). In July this golden boy scored crucial goals for the World Cup in South Africa and Spain are now set to play in the semi final on Sunday 11 July against Holland. Spain beat the Netherlands 1–0 to win the World Cup and are now champions of the world.
History of Valencia Football ClubMestalla stadium opened on 20 May 1923 and at the moment is still home to Valencia Football Club. On 17 February 1929, Valencia Club de Fútbol (known as los Che) played in the Spanish Football league at Mestalla stadium in the center of Valencia.
Today everyone is hoping the move to the new 75,000-seater Nou Mestalla stadium in the barrio of Benicalap (approximately three miles west of the center of Valencia) to be soon. It was predicted to be in May 2009 and then for the new season 2010/2011.
Unfortunately, the club appears to be in financial crisis and work on the new stadium has stopped. Nobody seems to know when the stadium will be finished.
