"Barcelona" leaders would like to continue to see forward David Villa in the team, so they plan to offer him a contract extension, writes the newspaper "Sport". However, the experienced veteran would have a slightly different role in the team. They want to have a so-called "super sub" in the team - an experienced footballer who could play a full 90 minutes, allow other players to rest, and, if necessary, wait on the bench without complaints. It was exactly such a "super sub" that Henrik Larsson, who arrived from Glasgow Celtic, was for Barcelona between 2004-2006. Although David Villa has constantly been in the media rumors this winter and has been linked to several Italian and English teams, the forward's contract with the Catalan club is still valid for another year and a half, until the summer of 2014. This December, the forward will turn 32, which was the age Henrik Larsson was when he arrived at Barcelona, so the Barcelona leaders believe that David Villa's experience and skills would be very useful for the team. Despite recovering from a serious thigh injury, the forward rarely makes it to Barcelona's starting lineup this year, but he does not disappoint on the field - the Spanish player, who has only scored 12 times in the Primera Division, has already scored 7 goals. According to the "Sport" publication, such a player would be useful for Barcelona for at least another two or three seasons.
