Transcription
Club career
Villa had previously played for Deportes Tolima, with whom he won the 2018 Categoría Primera A (Torneo Apertura), before joining Boca Juniors in the summer of the same year.[2]
Villa made his debut in the Argentine Primera División on 12 August 2018 against Talleres de Córdoba.[3] He scored his first goal for Boca in only his fourth appearance, a 3–0 home victory against Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield on 3 September 2018.[4]On 7 March 2021, Villa scored a brace in a 7–1 victory over Vélez Sarsfield.
Shortly after Boca's elimination from the Copa Libertadores round of 16 in July 2021, Villa tried to force an exit from the club, stopped showing up to training in late July, and left to Colombia that month. Boca received offers from Benfica and Club Brugge in the summer, all of which were rejected. Eventually Villa was convinced by Juan Román Riquelme to stay at the club, and he returned to Buenos Aires in late August. Villa resumed training the following week and publicly apologized.[5] He also received a sanction of fifteen days away from the field without pay, due to end at the beginning of October. However, Villa did not play again until 29 October, but playing with the reserve team, where he scored a goal.[6]
In June 2023, shortly after Villa was handed a suspended sentence, he flew to Colombia, but Boca insisted that he still trained despite he was not able to play any matches.[7]
In November 2023, Villa was announced as a new signing for Bulgarian top division side Beroe Stara Zagora.[8]
International career
Villa was called up to the Colombia national football team on 29 August 2018.[9] He made his debut against Venezuela on September 8, 2018.[10]
Legal issues
At the end of April 2020, a complaint was filed by the player's girlfriend, Daniela Cortés, who accused him of physical and psychological abuse, which she verified through photos.[11] In June 2023 Villa was found guilty of aggravated assault and coercive behaviour. Villa was given a suspended sentence of two years, and Boca announced that he would no longer be part of the club's activities.[12][13]
