TBR Football understands that a number of Premier League clubs are making enquiries and keeping close tabs on AC Milan’s bid for Swiss starlet Ardon Jashari.
Milan have made a couple of approaches to Club Brugge, with their latest offer worth up to £32 million remaining on the table.
Jashari initially refused to turn up for pre-season as he looked to force through a move to Milan, but he has since returned to the club.
Italian sources have confirmed to TBR Football that, having already signed Samuele Ricci and Luka Modric, new Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri wanted a younger talent, and Jashari was his man.
However, it is also understood that Milan are now ready to move on from Jashari if they can’t soon agree on terms with Club Brugge.
Sources: Tottenham and Nottingham Forest tracking Ardon Jashari
With that, TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey can confirm that several Premier League clubs are keeping close tabs on Ardon Jashari’s situation.
Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, Nottingham Forest, and West Ham United are keeping a close eye on the situation, as there is the prospect that he could be attainable.
The 22-year-old is also a player whom TBR Football can reveal Arsenal and Manchester City scouted heavily last season.
Jashari is a player many clubs consider one of the best young talents in his position in Europe, and he has even been likened to Declan Rice.
Brugge has stated in the last week that they do not want to lose the 22-year-old holding midfielder, who is seen as a real star of the future.
Club Brugge sporting director Devy Rigaux told Het Laatste Nieuws: “We believe that Ardon’s cycle has not yet been completed at the club. We are convinced that Ardon will make a top transfer, but only at a time when it is right for everyone.”
Ardon Jashari could be the ideal Yves Bissouma replacement for Tottenham
Tottenham are on the hunt for a new midfielder this summer, and the Swiss International could be the perfect option for them.
Jashari can play in several roles across the midfield, but he is predominantly a number six, which is what Spurs are most in need of.
TBR Football understands that Tottenham are ready to sell Yves Bissouma and his team are working to find him a new club.
The midfielder was offered to Juventus, but following talks with intermediaries and Bissouma’s people, nothing really progressed.
Bissouma has made it clear to Spurs that whilst he knows he has been told to leave, which he is starting to accept, he will only take the right offer.
