Jashari: "Great to return after 3 months"

After the friendly against Virtus Entella, in which he returned as a starter, midfielder Ardon Jashari spoke to Milan TV.

"Rhythms? It's always a bit difficult to get back to playing when you've been out for a long time, and on such fields, it's even more complicated, but in the end, I missed playing football. The most important thing today was to regain those feelings: doing good things with the ball, running a lot for the team. That mattered more than anything else today."
