LA Galaxy recruit Giovani dos Santos said the time was right to leave Villarreal.
After years of interest, the Galaxy finally got their man last week, signing Mexico international forward Dos Santos as a Designated Player.
Dos Santos' transfer to the MLS Cup champions ended his two-year association with La Liga outfit Villarreal, having opted to move closer to home after spending his entire senior career in Europe.
"I think it was the right time," the 26-year-old told Galaxy's website.
"They had been after me for the past five years if I'm not mistaken and I think that I am at my prime and I want to take advantage and enjoy playing soccer and I think I will have that in Los Angeles.
