Villa green-lighted to leave hospital
Posted Sunday, December 25, 2011 by ESPN
Barcelona striker David Villa was given the green light to leave hospital on Saturday after earlier this week undergoing an operation on his broken left shinbone.
The Spain international, 30, had surgery on the injury he sustained during Barca's Club World Cup semi-final victory over Al-Sadd on Monday and is set to be sidelined for between four and five months.
Barca announced on their website this evening: "David Villa was cleared to leave hospital this Saturday, five days after his operation, and the Azulgrana number seven will now be able to spend Christmas with his family."
