Former Barcelona striker David Villa admits Premier League regrets

Former Barcelona striker David Villa admits he regrets never playing in the Premier League.

The legendary striker, and Spain's top marksman ever, plays for Japanese club Vissel Kobe alongside former Barcelona teammate Andreas Iniesta, and will retire at the end of the season.

He told Marca: "[I would like to have] played in the Premier League.

"But I made my decisions and it really wouldn't be fair to complain that I missed out on something when I had such a complete career."
