'Bacca can't wait for Napoli'

By Football Italia staff

Milan striker Carlos Bacca apparently 'can't wait to come to Napoli', his agent has been quoted as saying.

The Colombian is one of a number of options to fill in the void left by the departure of Gonzalo Higuain, although the Partenopei's number one target remains Inter's Mauro Icardi.

Pundit Raffaele Auriemma, who works for Radio CRC, claims he was able to get first-hand intelligence on the player.

“We contacted Bacca's agent, who told us he can't wait to come and would be delighted with this solution,” Auriemma confirmed on Radio CRC. “Bacca is an accounting problem because he's 30 years old and no-one will buy him three years from now.

“If the plan is to win something now, that's because Juve are not eternal and they'll be focusing on the Champions League. The Milanese teams are in trouble, and so are Roma. If we don't take advantage of this situation now, then when?”
