“Noah Okafor will wear the number 17 shirt.”
It is a deal believed to be worth €13-15m, including add-ons.
Okafor is Milan’s sixth summer signing after Christian Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Tijjani Reijnders, Marco Sportiello and Luka Romero.
He will alternate with Olivier Giroud as Milan’s starting centre forward, but the Swiss international can also play on the left or right wing.
The Rossoneri’s new signing will join the rest of the team in the USA, where the Rossoneri will face Juventus, Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Soccer Champions Tour.
Okafor had joined RB Salzburg from Basel for circa €11m in January 2020, replacing Erling Haaland, who had joined Borussia Dortmund. He scored 34 goals in 110 games with Salzburg, including one against Milan in a Champions League group-stage game last season.
