Noah Okafor is displaying his qualities despite not being a starter for AC Milan. The 23-year-old Swiss talent already has 5 goals and 2 assists registered to his name after playing just 700 minutes across 26 matches.
The Rossoneri club was well aware of the Swiss national's qualities for a couple of years, but perhaps they didn't expect him to become such a useful asset in such a short time.
The former RB Salzburg talent is proving his worth to the Rossoneri by showing a high level of performance. Yesterday he emulated Leão against Empoli: dribbles with the ball at his feet and the decisive assist for Christian Pulisic's goal. Not to mention that just a week earlier, he was decisive coming off the bench with the winning goal (his fifth in the league) against Lazio.
Whether as a winger or a central attacker, Okafor has made himself indispensable for Milan. The least celebrated signing of the last transfer window, but, all things considered, the most useful without ever playing in his natural position, which is that of a second striker, as per Calciomercato.com.
