New York City FC: Can Alexandru Mitrita lead the way?

New York City FC lost their ever-reliable goalscorer David Villa as the Spanish striker moved on with his career to a new club in a new country this offseason. Now, the club must look to new avenues and new players for goals in 2019.

As expected, NYCFC have come forward with a big offer for a striker. The player they are after is Alexandru Mitrita of CS Universitatea Craiova.

At the moment, the striker is lighting up the Romanian top flight with 12 goals in 16 appearances. He has already surpassed his league goal total from last season, in which he scored seven goals in 21 appearances.
