Competition for the Bundesliga: Arsenal and Leicester close to Lucerne's Jashari

Lucerne captain Ardon Jashari arouses interest from the Premier League. Numerous Bundesliga clubs are also trying to attract the 20-year-old Swiss.

According to information from Sky, both Arsenal FC and Leicester City have been in contact with Jashari. The midfielder is already captain despite only being 20 years old with Lucerne and made his debut for the Swiss national team at the end of September.

At the beginning of October, Sky reported that at least six Bundesliga clubs would deal with the left foot. Among them are two top clubs. About a week ago, the Munich media group became specific and named VfL Wolfsburg and TSG Hoffenheim as interested parties. TSG coach André Breitenreiter and VfL sporting director Marcel Schäfer recently traveled to Switzerland to see Jashari on site.

The future will have to show whether the Bundesliga clubs can prevail against the competition from England. Jashari's contract in Lucerne runs until 2026. In addition, clubs from Spain and Italy are said to be interested in a transfer. According to Sky, many Swiss experts trust the talent to develop as steeply as Dortmund's Jude Bellingham.
