AC Milan get their man! Club Brugge finally ready to accept bid for Ardon Jashari after breakdown in relationship with midfielder

Brugge are ready to accept Milan's offer of €38 million (£33m/$43m) including bonuses, according to Calciomercato. After weeks of negotiations and personal terms already agreed with Jashari, Milan sealed the deal by revising their payment structure to meet Club Brugge’s demands.

Jashari joined Club Brugge from Swiss side Luzern for €6m, having recorded nine goals and 11 assists in 102 appearances. He excelled at Brugge, playing a pivotal role in their run to the Champions League round of 16 and winning both the 2024 Jupiler Pro League Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year awards. His performances drew global interest from Saudi Arabian side Neom, Bayer Leverkusen, and Chelsea, but Jashari turned them down and refused to play for Brugge to force a move to Milan.

Having secured Luka Modrić from Real Madrid and Samuele Ricci from Torino, Milan are now focused on strengthening their defence, targeting Young Boys defender Zachary Athekame following the collapse of their pursuit of Guela Doue.

Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri will hope that the Italian club will be able to get Jashari through the door as he has been the club’s number one target this window. For Jashari his childhood dream of playing at the San Siro could finally be fulfilled.
