Carlos Bacca Update

AC Milan has officially confirmed that West Ham transfer target Carlos Bacca has not traveled with the squad for their pre-season tour of the US.

However, Milan are insisting that he is being left at home “not for reasons related to the transfer market”

Sky Italia make claims Carlos Bacca is furious with AC Milan for ‘excluding’ him from the US tour.

Meanwhile Sevilla have confirmed they have pulled out the race for Bacca.  Sevilla’s Sporting Director, Monchi has said his club will not be signing 29 year old striker as they have filled their quota of foreign players in their squad.

Monchi said “We have three foreigners in the team, so there is nothing more to say. In addition, Carlos will have more interesting options.”

TuttoMercatoWeb claim Napoli will make contact with Carlos Bacca’s representatives, if Gonzalo Higuain is sold but they say as of yet, there has been no contact between Napoli and Carlos Bacca or his representatives. Italian football journalist Gianluca Di Marzio claims West Ham will look again at Simone Zaza if Bacca is a no go.
