Noah Okafor is expected to part ways with Milan this summer and according to a report, two clubs have expressed an interest in securing his services.
Okafor started the 2024-25 season with Milan, scoring in the opening game, but then went on loan to Napoli for the second half of the campaign. While he ended up winning the Scudetto, he only made four appearances with Napoli, contributing to zero goals.

In short, he’s not part of the Rossoneri’s plans for the upcoming season and work is underway to find an exit solution, both by the club and the player’s entourage. By the sounds of it, a solution could soon be found for the matter.
Two options on the table
According to Fabrizio Romano, Besiktas have entered the frame as they have expressed an interest in signing Okafor on loan. One would have to assume that it would be an initial loan deal, with a buy-out option of some sort, though this might not be enough to convince Milan.
RB Leipzig have also popped up again, per the journalist, after coming close to signing the winger in January. The player even departed for Germany to complete the move, but failed the medical tests. Or at least that was the official reason given.
It’s widely believed that Leipzig pulled out of the deal for other reasons, especially since Napoli then swooped in. Milan will likely be very tough in negotiations with Leipzig, as such, given the disrespect shown last time out.
