Ardon Jashari has thanked Club Brugge for the role they played in his development, but insisted it was time for the ‘next step’.
Jashari is officially a new Milan player after weeks of negotiations that threatened to be never-ending at various points. The Swiss international put pen to paper on a five-year deal with the Rossoneri, and the fee is reported to be €39m including bonuses.

Jashari says goodbye
Club Brugge said their own farewell to Jashari in two posts on their social media accounts, and the player wanted to express some thanks in return.
“A lot has been said and written in recent weeks. And what I have to say is simple: Thank you. Thank you, Club Brugge. Thank you to the fans, my teammates, the management, this wonderful city, and every single person who gave me the trust to perform at my best.
“Over the past year, I gave everything for the Blauw-Zwart shirt. Yes, I received individual awards, but nothing compares to what we achieved together. Lifting the cup in Brussels, as one team, one club, was the most rewarding moment.
“The derby win is another memory I’ll never forget, The past few weeks have been intense, for all of us. But today, I leave with nothing but gratitude. Now, it’s time for the next step in my career.
“With love, Ardon.”

It is just over 12 months ago that Jashari moved to the Belgian giants, leaving FC Luzern in his home country. He made 52 appearances and scored four goals for Brugge, winning the Belgian Cup as he mentions.
Love the attitude. I hope the pressure of the last few weeks didn’t get to him. I’m glad he’s here. Just stay calm. And take a few days to unwind and relax. I’m serious.
We all back his success
What player does he remind you guys of?
Does Ardon have similar qualities to some other famous footballer you know that we could compare him to?
What I could see, he is left footed and has defensive duties which he handles well, but is also good attacking and has good passes.
To me he looked like a mix of dybala and bennacer. But a bit stronger then bennacer maybe because he is a bit taller, and of course he is not the level of dybala!
Rossoneri he is mixed of barela and gattuso
Mister Allegri buy adam obert, soon as you can…
Welcome too red & black
