Noah Okafor to Start for AC Milan vs Parma

Noah Okafor is set to start for AC Milan in their Serie A match against Parma, replacing the injured Alvaro Morata, who will be sidelined for at least three weeks due to a thigh injury. Manager Paulo Fonseca confirmed Okafor's selection, highlighting his strong training performances and suitability for the match's conditions. Okafor previously made a significant impact as a substitute, scoring in Milan's recent 2-2 draw with Torino. Luka Jovic will start on the bench, and other lineup changes are anticipated, including Theo Hernandez's return to defense and a midfield duo of Yunus Musah and Tijjani Reijnders. Fonseca discussed the challenges of integrating late arrivals like Morata, emphasizing the importance of managing player fitness and expectations. Young striker Francesco Camarda, though talented, will not participate to avoid undue pressure.
