AC Milan are very close to agreeing a deal with Red Bull Salzburg over Noah Okafor with a medical already booked, according to a report.
According to the latest from Fabrizio Romano, Milan are closing in on deal with Salzburg to sign Okafor. Not only that, but there are medical tests booked in for Saturday and the player will arrive then, if all goes to plan.
The Swiss international has already agreed personal terms with the Rossoneri and he was on Stefano Pioli’s list of targets for the attacking department, the journalist adds.
The 23-year-old has played 110 games for the Austrian club, racking up 34 goals and 23 assists in that period. He scored against Milan in the last edition of the Champions League in Salzburg, giving them a 1-0 lead.
In terms of his role, he has played the majority of games as a centre-forward. He has 60 appearances as a striker, with 23 goals and 15 assists.
He will count as an EU player. Although Switzerland are not formally part of the EU, they are part of the Schengen agreement and the EEA.
