CropperJS getCroppedCanvas() returns null on second initialization

The method is called in the ready event. On the first call it works. When the modal is closed, I am destroying the cropper - cropper.destroy() . After opening the modal second time, the cropper is initialized again but this time cropper.getCroppedCanvas() returns null

let cropper = new Cropper(image, {
                dragMode: 'move',
                aspectRatio: ratio,
                restore: false,
                guides: false,
                center: false,
                highlight: false,
                cropBoxMovable: false,
                cropBoxResizable: false,
                toggleDragModeOnDblclick: false,
                ready: function () {
                    modal.find(".save").on("click", function () {
                        console.log(cropper.getCroppedCanvas())
                        cropper.getCroppedCanvas().toBlob(function (blob) {
                            let formData = new FormData()
                            formData.append("croppedImage", blob)
                            jQuery.ajax({
                                method: "post",
                                url: "index.php?option=com_image_slideshows&task=slideshow.saveCroppedImage",
                                data: formData,
                                processData: false,
                                contentType: false
                            })
                            .done(function (response) {
                                modal.modal("hide")
                            })
                        })
                    })
                    cropper.crop()
                }
            })

On modal closing this happens:

modal.on("hidden.bs.modal", function () {
                cropper.destroy()
                jQuery("#cropper-modal .modal-body").html(
                    jQuery("<img>", {
                        id: "image",
                        "class": "cropper-hidden"
                    })
                )
            })
