Carlos Bacca wants more Europa League success

Sevilla are desperate to win the Europa League for a fourth time, according to their Colombian striker Carlos Bacca.

Sevilla forward Carlos Bacca has revealed that his team are desperate to win back-to-back Europa Leagues this season.

The Spanish outfit triumphed in last season's competition and they are once again in the quarter-finals this time around.

Unai Emery's side will take a 2-1 lead into the second leg of their last-eight clash with Zenit St Petersburg on Thursday, and Bacca wants another positive result.

"With Sevilla having won it three times there's a lot of excitement about playing in it, although we don't just want to play in it – we want to win it," Bacca told UEFA.com.

"It's not going to be easy, we know that, but the Europa League is a competition that Sevilla and its fans like a lot. Hopefully we'll get past Zenit and my old club Club Brugge will also get into the next round, so we'll end up facing each other sooner or later.

"I'd like to go back to the Jan Breydel Stadium and feel the affection of the fans. It would be something special to play against them."

Bacca joined Sevilla from Brugge in 2013.
