The Swiss Okafor contracted a metatarsal book in mid-April. Its market value is currently 20 million euros. In the past season, the 14-time international played 15 goals in 32 games across all competitions. At the beginning of 2020, the right footer switched from Basel to RBS for 11.2 million euros, and the top club now has a small transfer bonus – also with a view to the approaching end of the contract.

Salzburg’s transfer income will increase to at least €75.5m this summer, which is enough for a top 10 place in an international club comparison – compared to €14.8m spent on newcomers like Mads Bidstrup so far. As of today, Milan, on the other hand, have invested €55m in Christian Pulisic, Tijjani Reijnders and Ruben Loftus-Cheek and collected €64m for Sandro Tonali, who has moved to Newcastle. According to reports, Okafor was able to focus on the direct Champions League duels between RB and Milan.
