Despite a distinguished career, Edin Džeko’s iconic number 11 shirt will not be retired by the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team. Following Džeko’s retirement from international football, the decision was made to continue using the jersey number for future players. This choice was not initiated by either the Football Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina or by Džeko himself, raising questions about the reasoning behind it. The news, originally reported by Sarajevo Times, indicates a desire to keep the number in circulation despite its strong association with the legendary player. This maintains the availability of the number for the Bosnia and Herzegovina squad moving forward. The article suggests the decision acknowledges that no single player should permanently hold a jersey number. Fans in Bosnia and Herzegovina may have differing opinions on this outcome.
