Noah Okafor is one of the most talked about names of the moment. The Swiss striker with Salzburg stole the eye in the group stage of the Champions League where he shone against Milan and Chelsea. The Rossoneri club would have included him in the list of possible reinforcements for next summerdespite knowing that price and competition have already increased.
Experienced young man
As reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport this morning, betting on Okafor, born in 2000, would mean respect the green line parameters that Milan have been imposing for some time now and who have brought so much luck to the Rossoneri club. The Swiss footballer is young and has great prospects after showing great things in this edition of the Champions League. With Salzburg Okay he has already scored 10 goals in this first part of the pre-World Cup season: 7 in the league and 3 in the European competition (one at Milan and one at Chelsea). Now for Noah there is the important appointment in Qatar with his Switzerland: last year he contributed with two excellent performances to send Italy to the play-offs. So Champions as a protagonist and then the World Cup as an aspiring one, not only the green line but also already a good level of experience on which Milan could rely.
Price and competition
Clearly for the same reasons, i.e. an excellent Champions League and a possible World Cup in which to show off, it won’t be easy to snatch the Swiss striker from the competition who could attract even more eyes to himself and his talent. According to the indiscretion of the rosea the price of Noah Okafor would have already exceeded 35 million eurosalso due to the interests of the Premier League teams which increased the price tag. At the same time, however, Milan could make him the big investment in the next summer transfer market – a bit like what happened with De Ketelaere in the last session – especially if the Rossoneri were to collect a good nest egg from a possible sale of Rafael Leao. Okafor is a very useful player because he not only plays as a winger but can also be a first and second striker.
