01 · The Dossier — The Soul
A nation born in war,
built on football pride
Bosnia and Herzegovina has existed as an independent country only since 1992, and football has been one of its proudest unifying forces. The Dragons reached their first World Cup in 2014 — and now they're back.

SarajevoZmajeviThe 2014 debutBalkan gritHajmo Bosno
From a country still rebuilding after the 1990s, Bosnia produced a golden generation — Edin Džeko, Miralem Pjanić, Asmir Begović — that qualified for the 2014 World Cup, beating its first opponent and announcing the Dragons to the world.
That debut ended in the group stage, and a decade of near-misses followed. Now, under former international Sergej Barbarez, an experienced core blended with fresh talent has dragged Bosnia back. A second World Cup is itself a triumph for a nation this young.
02 · The Cabinet — Honours
The record
No silverware — but a proud footballing identity and a hard-won return to the global stage.
05 · The Legend — The Diamond
Edin Džeko
He rose from war-scarred Sarajevo to score goals across Europe's biggest leagues — a Premier League title with Manchester City, prolific years at Roma, and the captaincy of his country.
Edin Džeko is Bosnia's all-time top scorer by a country mile and the face of the golden generation that gave a young nation its first World Cup.
Now in the twilight of a remarkable career, he leads the Dragons to a second World Cup — a final chapter for the greatest player Bosnia has produced.

The enemy
Group B is balanced — Canada, Switzerland, Qatar. Bosnia's enemy is the memory of 2014, when a debut full of promise ended in a group exit despite a famous moment.

Bosnia is experienced, organised and dangerous on the counter. In an open group, a first-ever knockout appearance is genuinely within reach.

Lightning rod
At 40, in what is surely his final World Cup, Edin Džeko is still the focal point. Bosnia's whole tournament hinges on whether the great striker has one more campaign in him.

From besieged Sarajevo to a Premier League title, his career mirrors his country's resilience. “One last World Cup for the Dragon-in-chief.”

Experienced, organised and in an open group — Bosnia could finally win the knockout place that eluded the 2014 side.
08 · Key Power · World Cup 2026
DEMIROVIĆ
The heir · Stuttgart · No. 9
Džeko is the soul, but Ermedin Demirović is the future of Bosnia's attack — a powerful, mobile Bundesliga forward who shares the scoring burden and offers the legs the veteran no longer has. As the golden generation fades, he is the player Bosnia's next era is built around. The bridge from Džeko to whatever comes next.
