Milan, Jashari blow: fractured fibula, Musah set to stay | OneFootball

Bad news for Milan on the eve of the trip to Lecce. Ardon Jashari, the Swiss midfielder acquired in the summer and the most expensive investment of the Rossoneri campaign, will be forced to stop. Medical examinations he underwent have revealed a compound fracture of the right fibula.

Blow for Milan: Jashari fractures fibula, Musah's transfer falls through

The club announced it through an official statement: “Ardon Jashari, following the injury sustained today, underwent tests that revealed a compound fracture of the right fibula. The player will follow a conservative treatment.” A diagnosis that will require the midfielder to undergo a lengthy recovery period, forcing Allegri to rethink his plans.

Jashari's injury also has consequences for the future of Yunus Musah. The American midfielder was close to a transfer to Atalanta, which had put an offer of 25 million euros plus bonuses on the table. But the Swiss player's stoppage has changed Milan's strategies: the club has decided to freeze, at least for now, the sale of the American, who might even become a starter as soon as tomorrow at the “Via del Mare.” In a press conference, Max Allegri confirmed the situation, also revealing the dynamics of the injury: “Jashari is a strong player, unfortunately today he got injured in a clash with Gimenez. He will not be available against Lecce. I consider him a defensive midfielder or to be used in a two-man midfield.” A heavy blow, therefore, for the Rossoneri, who lose the most anticipated reinforcement of their summer but regain Musah, now called upon to take charge of the Milan midfield in a delicate phase of the season.
