AC Milan has reportedly set a Monday deadline to finalize negotiations for Ardon Jashari from Club Brugge, indicating they will pursue Valencia`s Javi Guerra as an alternative if an agreement isn`t reached.
The Rossoneri believe their offer of €38 million, including add-ons, is their final and maximum bid, but Club Brugge continues to hold out for a higher transfer fee.
Jashari himself is keen on a move to San Siro and claims Club Brugge had previously assured him of a transfer if an offer of €32.5 million plus bonuses was received. The player has reportedly requested a meeting with Club Brugge management to facilitate his move, but Milan`s patience is wearing thin.
Milan Awaits Breakthrough in Jashari Deal
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Monday is the final day for a decisive development in the Jashari deal; otherwise, Milan will activate their alternative plan.
Their alternative target is Javi Guerra, a 22-year-old Spanish midfielder who developed through Valencia`s youth system.
Guerra has also drawn interest from Manchester United and remains on their shortlist, while Valencia is simultaneously working to secure him with a new contract. This situation further emphasizes why Milan cannot delay their decision much longer, risking the loss of their secondary option as well.
