following Carlos Bacca's €30 million move to AC
Milan
Sevilla coach Unai Emery has confirmed that Javie
Hernandez , Ciro Immobile and Fernando Llorente
are possible replacements for Carlos Bacca.
Colombia international Bacca was the Rojiblancos'
top scorer last season, netting 28 times in all
competitions, but the striker departed for AC Milan
on July 2, after the Serie A side met his €30
million buy-out clause.
Emery is thus looking for someone to fill the void
in the Sevilla attack and has three names on his
transfer target list.
“We now have to find another Bacca," the 43-year
old trainer told the Corriere dello Sport. "It’s not
easy, but there are opportunities.
"There is Chicharito, Immobile and other players
that we are evaluating, like Llorente, though it will
not be easy to get to him.
"But what’s important is the desire, not the age."
Hernandez spent last season at Real Madrid but
has since returned to parent club Manchester
United after the Blancos decided against making
his loan deal permanent.
Immobile was the Capocannoniere in Serie A in
2013-14, which earned him a move from Torino t
Borussia Dortmund, but the Italy attacker's future
at Signal Iduna Park is in doubt after a dreadful
debut season in Germany.
Llorente, meanwhile, is also likely to be on the
move this summer, having fallen further down the
pecking order at Juventus following the signings o
Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala.
