As suggested by La Gazzetta dello Sport , Ardon Jashari may yet have a future at Milan .
The 23-year-old midfielder was on his way out of San Siro after an unfortunate debut campaign that saw him suffer a broken fibula early into the season, after which he struggled to get minutes under Max Allegri, managing just 17 appearances.
But Allegri is long gone now. With Ruben Amorim preparing for the new season Down Under, the Swiss international has a chance to revitalise his nascent Milan career. His ball-playing and tackling capabilities in tandem will be in high demand for the 3-4-2-1 Amorim is widely expected to deploy, a formation that demands a lot of its midfield pivot.
Moreover, Luka Modrić may be continuing for another year, but the quadragenarian can hardly be expected to feature week in, week out, especially on the back of a World Cup campaign and in a season that will see Milan feature in the Europa League.
So Modrić will start next season with limited minutes, if any, and grow into the campaign. In him, a young player like Jashari could find a senior operator to help him hone his craft and become a mainstay in the middle of the park for the Rossoneri by the end of the season. A clean slate under Amorim means Jashari will not have to worry about past perceptions and start impressing on day one.
Jashari's €4.63m-per-year Milan contract is set to run until June 2030. While an exit is not impossible, he is more likely to remain at Milan than he has been in recent months.
