Sevilla reach agreement with AC Milan over Carlos Bacca



Posted Friday, July 03, 2015 by squawka.com

Sevilla have today reached an agreement with AC Milan for the sale of Colombian striker Carlos Bacca, as per the club’s official website.

The 28-year-old hit-man had a wonderful 2014/15 campaign at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium and his form – scoring 20 La Liga goals – had attracted interest from the Premier League.

Manchester United were one of the sides after Bacca, as per the Telegraph, but the striker is now set to move to the San Siro after the Italian side won the race for his signature.

Milan representatives have travelled to Barranquilla, Colombia – where Bacca is currently on holiday – to oversee a medical for the striker, as per the Guardian, and Sevilla’s sporting director Monchi confirmed a deal would be completed soon earlier this week.

Monchi said: “Carlos Bacca’s future will be resolved in the next few days.”

Carlos Bacca had a chance conversion rate of 33% during the 2014/15 La Liga campaign.

Bacca had also confirmed earlier this week that he would be signing for Milan, as per the Daily Express, after the Italian club activated his €29 million (£21m) release clause.

The move will be seen as an astute one by Sinisa Mihajlovic this summer, as the red half of Milan look to improve on their tenth-place finish last season.

Milan sacked manager Filippo Inzaghi last month after their poor campaign and brought in Sampdoria boss Mihajlovic to improve their fortunes.
