AC Milan striker Carlos Bacca is said to be a summer transfer target for Arsenal, having also reportedly been on the Gunners' radar in January.

Arsenal have reportedly revived their interest in AC Milan striker Carlos Bacca but face competition from La Liga side Valencia to land his signature.

The Gunners were linked with the 30-year-old ahead of the January transfer window, five months after a proposed £25m move to Premier League rivals West Ham United broke down.

Bacca rejected the Hammers' personal terms and instead opted to stay at San Siro, where he has started 24 times in Serie A this season.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Arsenal are looking to lure the Colombian to North London after he was dropped for last weekend's defeat to Empoli, suggesting that he has fallen out of favour under boss Vincenzo Montella.

Bacca has scored 14 times in 30 appearances for Milan this term, which is said to have also earned him interest from Spanish club Valencia.
