AC Milan striker Carlos Bacca has revealed he will hold talks with the club over his future once his commitments to Colombia's Copa America campaign are over with.


Bacca has been linked with moves away from San Siro over the last few months, with West Ham United in particular credited with interest. The Hammers are even reported to have made an offer for the former Sevilla man, while German champions Bayern Munich are reported to havemade an offer for the playerat the back end of last season.

However, now Atletico Madrid are reported to be chasing the player's signature too. But speaking toMarcawhen asked if he knew about interest from Atletico Madrid or any other club,he said: "I'm sure you [the journalists] know more than me.


"My priority is Milan but I know there are offers and interest in me from major clubs in Spain, England, Germany and France.


"Some clubs have already spoken to my agent, but he hasn't told me anything. He'll tell me everything once I'm finished with the Copa America. For now I have four more years of contract with Milan and I don't know if they're willing to sell me."

Bacca moved to Milan last summer and despite not performing to his best, hescored 18 goals in 38 appearances in the league, while he netteda further two in the Coppa Italia.


The 29-year-old revealed he doesn't regret leaving Sevilla for Milan, despite his tough first season in Italy, adding: "I never regretted it as I made my decision with great confidence and it was a step I wanted to take to keep growing. The project of Milan excited me. We also know that Sevilla have to sell players every year and it was my turn. People understood.


"I've already spoken to Monchi and the president (about a possible return), with whom I still have an excellent relationship.With God's help I'd like to go back there one day because I know that at Sevilla the door is always open for me. I'm sure I'll return one day."
