SM: Okafor selects shirt number after completing Milan move

Noah Okafor will be the sixth signing for AC Milan this summer, having completed his medical tests earlier today. The Swiss international has also decided the shirt number he will wear at the club. 

Milan decided to accelerate their pursuit of the player on Thursday/Friday and quickly reached an agreement with RB Salzburg at around €15m. A great deal for the Rossoneri, who need a striker to alternate with Olivier Giroud.

As learned by our correspondent Luca Maninetti, Okafor has decided to wear the No.17 shirt with Milan. He arrived at Casa Milan just a few minutes ago and the official announcement, due tonight or tomorrow, should confirm that.

The player is expected to fly to Los Angeles tomorrow to join his new teammates for the pre-season tour. Perhaps we will see him in action against Juventus, which will be the second friendly game of the USA tour.
