Verona's Croatian coach Ivan Juric has turned his eyes from his hometown to find a replacement for Rrahmani.
Juric loves the defender from Pristina Ardian Ismajli, who has excelled with Hajduk Split in the last two years.
The Albanian representative is seen as Rrahmani's successor in Verona with coach Juric who has expressed interest in him.
Croatian media Sportklub.hr has reported that so far there is no official offer, but Verona has shown interest in the defender and his transfer to Serie A is seen as a good opportunity.
However, two other Italian teams, Bologna and Atalanta, have also expressed interest in the Albanian footballer.
Ismajli's value in the transfer market is around four million euros.
