The World Cup is finally starting, and today the host Mexico and South Africa will raise the curtain on the biggest sports show on the planet.
During the next five and a half weeks, the attention of football fans will be directed towards the stadiums across North America, where battles will be fought for the most valuable trophy in the world of football, but also for a place in history.
Every World Cup brings several new stars who use the biggest stage to break through to the very top, and among the players from whom a lot is expected this time, there is the representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kerim Alajbegović.
The respected British portal Goal included Alajbegović among the young footballers who could leave a strong mark on the upcoming World Cup.
In the explanation of their choice, they stated that the young BiH. the national team player played a very important role in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s victories against Wales and Italy in the play-off for the World Cup.
“Although he mostly came off the bench in those matches, he now appears as a serious candidate for a place in Sergej Barbarez’s starting line-up in the first game against Canada. Alajbegović is a winger who uses both feet equally well and has a strong sense of goal. Last season he scored 13 goals for Red Bull Salzburg, after which Bayer Leverkusen activated the buy-out clause in his contract,” according to Goal.
It is added that it is still not certain that the 18-year-old will play for the German club next season, given that after possible good games at the World Cup, he could attract the interest of other European giants.
