Carlos Vela really thought that spending five months without playing soccer wouldn't mean nothing. Just return to trainings and start playing in MLS as no time has passed by. But, his unprofessional ideas only brought him problems. A new injury in one of his knees led him to abandon the US league until October and Los Angeles FC is the one that will pay the price.

The Mexican exposed that his wife pregnancy was enough to take a five months vacation. What Vela didn't noticed is that he is still charging a 4 million dollar anual contract for his services. And now it seems that LA FC is the only one who is paying the big price of spending empty money.

Vela's actual market value is among 18 million dollars. After two years in the team, his big participation was last year when he was selected as the MVP and also lifted the Golden Boot trophy. For him, it was enough to relax. But, LA FC needs results and his best player is far from getting them.
