AC Milan submit official offer for Ardon Jashari after agreeing contract with Club Brugge midfielder

Milan have submitted a formal offer to Brugge for Jashari, according to Calciomercato in Italy. The proposed deal includes a total package worth €35 million (£30m/$38m), combining fixed fees and easily attainable bonuses. The Belgian side, however, are holding out for €35m guaranteed plus an additional €5m in variables, which would mark a record-breaking sale for the club.

Milan have been following Jashari all season long as he gained interest from other parts of Europe, and sporting director Igli Tare is said to be very eager for the deal to happen. The club has already worked out personal terms with the 22-year-old Swiss international. He is likely to sign a five-year deal worth €3m net per season. Milan want to sign Jashari as a crucial player for the upcoming season since Max Allegri is rebuilding the midfield with both experienced players like Luka Modric and a blend of young talent.

Jashari was named the Belgian Pro League Player of the Year as well as the Young Player of the Year for his exploits last season. If Milan meet Brugge's demands, he will become a club-record signing, overtaking Charles De Ketelaere , who left the same club for AC Milan for €35m in 2022.

Milan are waiting for a formal response from Brugge. The Belgian club are not in a hurry and is still working on getting the best deal. If Brugge agree to the deal or lower their expectations, Jashari will fly to Italy for medical tests and finish the transfer quickly.
