As the transfer window enters its final hours, AC Milan are seeking to offload Swiss forward Noah Okafor. Following a failed move to RB Leipzig earlier in the window, Okafor remains on Milan’s list of potential departures. The Rossoneri are exploring various options for the 24-year-old, with interest emerging from both within Italy and abroad.
Calciomercato report that Atalanta have emerged as a potential destination for Okafor. The Bergamo-based club are in the market for a striker to address their current attacking crisis, caused by injuries to Gianluca Scamacca and Ademola Lookman, as well as the departure of Nicolò Zaniolo to Fiorentina. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini is pushing for reinforcements, with Okafor listed among their targets alongside Lorenzo Lucca of Udinese and Everton’s Beto.
However, a surprising contender has entered the race for Okafor’s signature. Napoli are reportedly making inquiries about the Swiss international. The versatile forward could be the perfect fit for Antonio Conte’s tactical requirements, capable of playing both as a winger and a central striker.
Okafor, born in 2000, joined Milan in 2023 and has made 52 appearances for the club, scoring 7 goals. His potential move in the closing stages of the transfer window could provide him with a fresh opportunity to showcase his talents and secure more regular playing time.
