Villa closes Casa Atleti Seoul with record crowds
David Villa, Atletico Madrid legend and now Apollo advisor, brings the curtain down on the Seoul edition of Casa Atleti, which has exceeded all expectations.
David Villa, the Atlético Madrid legend and now Apollo advisor, put the finishing touch on Casa Atleti Seoul, the third edition of the event which has surpassed all expectations according to MARCA.
The Seoul experience has eclipsed the previous ones in Los Angeles and Miami. Queues wound around entire blocks before Thursday's opening, and hundreds of fans managed to get photos with players such as Barrios, Lookman, Le Normand, Arnau, Castillo, DomĂnguez and Esquivel. The weekend saw no letup in visitors.
Even with his boots hung up, the Guaje still stirs the same passion as during his playing days. His presence was celebrated like that of any other squad member, a gift for South Korean fans who not only enjoyed their idols but also sold out the club's shirt stocks.
