In an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, Frick, who coached Jashari at Luzern, heaped high praise on the midfielder but pointed out a flaw he feels the 23-year-old could work on. Jashari, who joined from Luzern last summer, is set to complete a €38 million (£33m/$43m) move to after refusing to play for Brugge to force the transfer.

Jashari’s move to Milan marks the end of a tense period at Club Brugge, just a year after joining the Belgian side. Despite interest from , and Neom, the 23-year-old had his heart set on AC Milan. He was left out of club’s win over Union SG, with the team’s captain saying he did not want to play for the Belgian side and he was left out for their opening league match.u0026nbsp;

Milan initially submitted a bid of €32m (£28m/$37m) plus €6 million in bonuses, but Brugge rejected the offer. Although reluctant to go overboard, Milan eventually returned with an improved offer that finally got the deal across the line.

Frick praised the midfielder’s maturity and labelled him as a born leader, saying: “From another planet: he’ll have a great career, he’s already on the pitch like a thirty-year-old. He’s a natural-born leader: at twenty, he was already the head of the dressing room.”u0026nbsp;

However, Frick also pointed out a flaw that Jashari still needs to work on, adding: “Whenever he can, he plays vertically, and I’m sure he would do the same in . The only flaw is that he doesn’t score many goals, but he has pace, he’s quick, and he’s physically strong.”u0026nbsp;

Jashari flew in on a private jet and landed at Linate Airport on Tuesday. He will officially sign his contract after completing medical tests, before joining the team for pre-season training. The Rossoneri have already begun their pre-season campaign and are set to face on August 9 at the Aviva Stadium.
