Noah Okafor delighted joining AC Milan; reveals Pioli influence

Noah Okafor has enjoyed his first days with AC Milan.

The striker arrived a fortnight ago from RB Salzburg and enjoyed his media presentation today.

Okafor said: “I have a truly wonderful feeling. I signed the contract with Milan, yesterday was the first time at Milanello and first time training with the team.

“I was with the team in Los Angeles, they gave me a great welcome. Yesterday I met (Samu) Chukwueze for the first time, I already knew him because he is Nigerian, I had talked to him other times for other occasions and I’m very happy to have him as a teammate.

“I had a metatarsal injury. I’m very happy to be training with the team, I’m at a good level and I’ve recovered. I spoke to (Stefano) Pioli about the position to play in, in a trident for example, but we’ll see in the coming weeks… Still, it feels great.”

He also said: “When the various options were presented to me, I considered Milan for their history, I was impressed. From day one, I chose to bet on Milan among the various alternatives. I had contact with Pioli, he liked me and this was a very important thing.

“I don’t like losing, I won four titles. Salzburg were an excellent team. I like the philosophy of the club and its history at Milan. I have to work every day to achieve my goals.”
