TMW: Okafor currently set for Milan return – Napoli not convinced of €23.5m investment
AC Milan have several players out on loan regarding whom they are awaiting news on the respective option to buy clauses, and Noah Okafor is among them.
According to TMW, as we approach the end of the season Napoli will have to resolve a few issues regarding potential buy-outs of players currently in Antonio Conte’s squad, ahead of the 2025-26 season.
Okafor is one of those names. Up to now his physical problems have affected his performance, but in the final part of the season he could become an important player for Conte given his versatility and the fact he has unique attributes within the squad.
The issue is that the option to buy which Milan and Napoli shook hands on was set at €23.5. At present he would return to the Rossoneri because they have seen nowhere close to that value, though the final part of the campaign could see the Swiss write a different story.
Napoli’s sporting director Giovanni Manna spoke about Okafor’s arrival Milan, admitting that he was a bit behind in terms of his physical condition. There was talk of him failing a medical with RB Leipzig, but as we revealed a late attempt to change economic aspects of the operation saw it collapse.
