Milan loses another player between the midfield and attack.
After Luka Jovic, Christian Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and Yunus Musah, it seems that Noah Okafor has also been sidelined.
The Swiss player missed the Champions League match against Red Star due to a troublesome lumbar sciatica issue but came on for a brief 15-minute appearance against Genoa on Sunday evening, a memorable one for neither him nor his rating (just a 5), as relayed via La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Yesterday, he suffered a new setback, unfortunately, during training at Milanello: Okafor sustained a muscle injury, specifically to his calf, which is oddly the same issue Pulisic has.
What are Noah Okafor's numbers so far in this 2024/2025 season?
The former RB Salzburg forward has made 11 appearances in Serie A thus far. In the league competition, he played only 412 minutes with one goal registered to his name. Between the Champions League and Coppa Italia, he has 5 appearances with one assist in each competition. Low numbers for a player who joined Milan for a fee around 15.5 million euros in the summer of 2023.
