Ardon Cashari received a vote of confidence from new Milan gaffer Ruben Amorim over the summer and has not entertained leaving after a disappointing first Milan season marred by early injury. But this has not yet turned into ordinary minutes, Corriere dello Sport reports.
The Swiss international has been the most underused midfielder ever. In addition to two key players, Adrien Rabiot and Luka Modric, he also missed out on Yunus Musah and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
Milan spent €36m on Cashari after he showed real promise at Club Brugge. However, he broke his leg a few weeks after joining. Last year he never got into a rhythm and couldn’t beat Massimiliano Allegri. He played 17 games in just under 900 minutes and had just one assist in terms of goal contributions.
The 24-year-old has had a good pre-season and admits he is more comfortable in a two-man midfield. However, with Modric staying and Musa bringing a lot to the table with his athleticism, he is an afterthought. He has played more with the national team than the national team Rossoneri until now.
Atalanta walked last summer, but he and the team decided to stay together. Samuele Ricci eventually became the odd man out, joining Como on loan with an option to buy for €20m.
Our attitude to Milan and Cashari
He hasn’t had much luck, but he’s never been impressed. He should really be a better fit for their current set-up as he is all-rounder. However, he is held back by not excelling in either phase and not being very physical. When Modric is rested, he will have to take advantage of opportunities.
