The key to unlock the situation was the meeting of the Swiss with the Belgian management
After weeks of wall against wall, Milan and Bruges are now close to defining the passage in the Rossoneri of Ardon Jashari. The turning point yesterday after the interview between the footballer, the president of the Belgian club, Bart Verhaeghe and the CEO Bob Madou: the midfielder reiterated that he would not have accepted any other destination and that his firm desire is to wear the Rossoneri shirt. In fact, Jashari thus zeroed the courtesy by the Premier League and Saudi Arabia, forcing the Bruges to maintain the word that had been given to him or that of selling him in front of a record offer for the Belgian championship. Milan put 33.5 million more than 4.5 bonuses on the table, of which 2 easy to reach (linked to the qualification of Allegri’s formation to the Champions League in the coming years). And yesterday he made a further effort by increasing the fixed part to 34 million. This will be the figure reclaimed by via Aldo Rossi, if there are no other twists and turns in the next few hours. The dialogue between the companies had the accelerate that the devil fans were waiting for and on Monday evening the exchange of emails started to define the bonuses in detail and the methods of payment. In short, the road is finally the right one and the white smoke could already arrive today. In the Rossoneri headquarters now there is certainly more optimism than in the past, but only when there are signatures can you smile and put an end to the catchphrase of the summer.
ready to go

Jashari today will not start with Bruges in view of the first leg of the third round of Champions League against Salzburg. This is another of the points on which the midfielder has reached an agreement with his management. It will therefore remain in Belgium and will wait for the green light to take a direct flight to Milan. It could land in Italy already tonight or tomorrow to support medical examinations and sign a five -year contract of 2.5 million (to rise) plus bonuses. With him, Allegri will have a midfield of considerable thickness which also includes Ricci, Fofana, Modric and Loftus-Cheek, as well as Musah and Bondo. At least one of the latter two will be sold. Now it will be up to Max to decide how to use Ardon. Certainly, in spite of the 23 years of age for a few days, Jashari already has a certain experience: he has won the title of best player of the last Belgian championship and also knows the Champions League.
Milan to the Milan players

After Modric, who since childhood dreamed of wearing the Milan shirt because he was a fan, and Ricci, who at the Gazzetta dello Sport has admitted to being “sympathizing” of Milan since childhood, another new purchase has the Rossoneri DNA in the blood since as a child Jashari went to San Siro sometimes to see the devil play. A detail? Not for the managers of via Aldo Rossi who are building a group with a strong Milan DNA, of which they are naturally part of the cage and the historical nucleus of the current group (Leao, Maignan and Tomori).

With the grafts in the midst of Ricci, Modric and Jashari, Milan replaced Reijnders. And the figure collected for the Dutch from the City (57 million fixed part plus 15 bonuses) in fact was spent to buy the tag of the three reinforcements (the Croatian arrived on a zero parameter). The 34 million for Jashari are a super investment that arrived after the return of the team from the tour, a signal that, two weeks scarce since the beginning of the Italian Cup, it was necessary to accelerate. And the Rossoneri management did it, at the cost of paying the 2002 card born in Cham more than in charge. The hope is that he adapts quickly to our football and does not meet the difficulties of the other ex Bruges, De Ketelare who had to go to Atalanta to fully show his talent. Tare, the great sponsor of the operation, is convinced that with Ardon the ending will be different. Rossoneri fans hope so.
