Another twist in the Carlos Bacca saga, as it’s claimed Milan will leave him at home, but he doesn’t want West Ham United.
The striker yesterday declared that he was happy with the Rossoneri, and that he’d be joining his teammates for the pre-season tour of the USA.
Another twist in the Carlos Bacca saga, as it’s claimed Milan will leave him at home, but he doesn’t want West Ham United.
The striker yesterday declared that he was happy with the Rossoneri, and that he’d be joining his teammates for the pre-season tour of the USA.
Given that today is the deadline for Bacca to decide if he’ll sign for the Hammers, it was assumed that the deal was therefore off.
However, Sky is reporting that the Colombian international will not travel to the States, though it’s not his choice.
It’s believed Milan themselves have opted to leave the player in Italy, as they need to sell him to fund their transfer market, given the delays to the Chinese takeover.
The stumbling block is that Bacca doesn’t want to go to West Ham, given he wants Champions League football and would prefer a return to Spain.
With Kevin Gameiro seemingly set for Atletico Madrid, Sevilla are interested in bringing the forward back, just one season after selling him.
However, the Europa League winners are only offering €18m, while the English side have bid €30m.
That has created a tense situation, as Bacca wants Sevilla but not West Ham, while the Rossoneri will accept the Hammers’ offer but not Los Rojiblancos’.
