RB Leipzig to make second attempt at signing Noah Okafor

Fabrizio Romano reports that RB Leipzig are considering making a second attempt to sign Noah Okafor from AC Milan.

Okafor is attracting interest from Besiktas over a loan move, while Leipzig are also interested as the Swiss international seems surplus to requirements at the San Siro.

In the winter, Leipzig made a serious attempt to sign Okafor, with the move even going as far as the winger having a medical at the club. However, at the time, it was revealed that Okafor had an injury and he would not be a help to the club. Instead, the 25-year-old moved to Napoli, where he featured four times as they won their fourth Scudetto.

Okafor has experience in the Red Bull system as he experienced his breakthrough at sister club Red Bull Salzburg.

With Leipzig missing out on Celtic winger Nicolas Kühn, who is set for a move to Serie A side Como, Okafor is likely seen as an alternative.
