Besiktas has opened talks with Milan over the potential loan transfer of Swiss winger Noah Okafor, as part of its ongoing efforts to bolster its attacking line during the summer window.
The 25-year-old, who spent the latter half of the previous season on loan at Napoli, is seen as a key reinforcement following the signing of striker Tammy Abraham earlier this week.
Okafor joined Milan from Salzburg in 2023 for a reported fee of €15.5 million ($18.28 million). Last season, he featured in 21 matches, accumulating 595 minutes of playing time and registering one goal and two assists.
Besiktas has already made moves in the transfer market by acquiring Czech left-back David Jurasek and England international Tammy Abraham. Okafor is now the next priority, with club officials having initiated discussions with Milan regarding a possible loan deal.
Capable of operating effectively on the left flank, Okafor’s arrival would further strengthen Besiktas’ offensive options. Supporters are optimistic that a forward line including both Abraham and Okafor could provide a much-needed boost as the club prepares for the upcoming Super Lig season.
