Leeds United have been in contact with AC Milan representatives regarding a possible loan deal for Swiss international forward Noah Okafor. The injury prone attacker joined AC Milan in 2023 and has appeared 39 times in Serie A, scoring seven goals, but has failed to lock down a first-team place and is now ready to move elsewhere.

The versatile forward, who is comfortable playing up front or as a winger, is available on a permanent deal or a loan transfer and at 25-years-old the player knows that he has a few more years till he reaches his prime and a new opportunity elsewhere will kickstart his career.

Former club RB Leipzig were also known to have been looking at bringing the player back to Germany as a replacement for Benjamin Sesko, but with doubts over the player’s fitness opted against making a transfer move.

Leeds United won 1-0 against Everton yesterday evening in the Premier League, and the club’s manager Daniel Farke believes that despite that win the Elland Road outfit are still short in the attacking department.
