There is a need to add midfielders for the future this summer, past the signings of Granit Xhaka and Luka Modric. Of course, quality is needed, as is experience. However, Milan cannot place their long-term ambitions on those that follow. Instead, they must be embedded into the team now.
So, this is why the club are back on the Jashari track. After all, the midfielder has already expressed that it is a dream to play at San Siro.
Devilish future
As HLN write, today, the midfielder is a target of both Manchester United and the Diavolo, but it seems his preference is Serie A and San Siro. However, this may not be the be-all and end-all for things.
The Red Devils want to ‘go further’ than Milan to bring the midfielder to the club; however, he does not see Ruben Amorim’s side as an attractive destination, opening the door to the Rossoneri effectively.
So, if the two clubs can agree on fees, it should be plain sailing. Right now, €30 million is the figure that the Diavolo are offering, but this will not open negotiations with the Belgian club. Instead, €40m is needed to open ‘concrete discussions’.
It is worth noting that this figure can also be reached, or neared, with bonuses, so it may not require €40m altogether.
