This was officially announced by the Bundesliga soccer club on Saturday. According to Italian media reports, Milan transferred between 13 and 14 million euros to the “bulls” for the 14-time Swiss international. Okafor has been given a contract until 2028 and is expected to earn an annual salary of two million euros.
Okafor won four championship titles and three cups with Salzburg. In 110 competitive games for the “Bulls” he recorded 34 goals and 23 assists. The 23-year-old attacker attracted attention above all through strong performances in the Champions League. He also scored against his future employer in the group stage last season.
“My move to Salzburg was a very important step in my career and I can look back on a wonderful time with many highlights. It gave me the chance to play at a very high level and also to prove myself in the Champions League,” said Okafor. The attacker switched from FC Basel to Salzburg in winter 2020 and matured into a national player in the city of Mozart.
