Swiss international Ardon Jashari has landed in Italy and is set for his medical examination with AC Milan tomorrow morning. This highly anticipated move comes after Club Brugge finally reached an agreement with the Italian giants, with the total transfer package estimated to be between €38-39 million, including various performance-based add-ons. Upon his arrival, a visibly delighted Jashari expressed his joy, simply stating, “I’m very happy.”

Negotiations for the transfer proved lengthy, spanning well over a month before a significant breakthrough was achieved earlier this week on Monday.

While minor discrepancies exist across various reports regarding the precise figures, it is confirmed that the fixed transfer fee for Jashari stands at a minimum of €34-36 million. Additionally, the deal includes €3-4 million in performance-related bonuses, bringing the comprehensive value of the transfer to the aforementioned €38-39 million.

Jashari had previously agreed to personal terms on a lucrative five-year contract with AC Milan, reportedly worth €2.5 million per season. With personal terms already settled, the player was eager to finalize his move as soon as the clubs reached a consensus.

The highly-rated player was flown to Italy on a private jet arranged by AC Milan, touching down at Linate airport earlier this evening.

Following his arrival, Jashari is expected to be transported to Hotel Melià, a location traditionally utilized by the Rossoneri to accommodate new recruits ahead of their official medical examinations. Fans are anticipated to gather outside the hotel, hoping for a glimpse of their potential new star.

The 23-year-old Switzerland international reportedly declined more financially attractive proposals from other clubs abroad. His unwavering determination to join AC Milan stems from a long-standing affection for the club, which he has supported since a memorable childhood visit to the iconic San Siro stadium.
