After the historic placement at the World Cup, unfounded comments appeared in the public, primarily from journalists from Serbia, that “Serbs were expelled” from the BiH national team.
David Vuković, Vladan Kovačević, Svetozar Marković, Srđan Babić and many others are just some of the Serbian players who have made it clear that they do not want to play for BiH. national team.
“A big result was achieved and instead of that being the focus, because the four-time world champion was kicked out in the playoffs, some things immediately turn around. Those facts are not correct. We have to separate some things. This is football and we don’t mix politics and sport. The best players and players with the highest quality should play there. Everyone who wants to play, everyone is in circulation and on the radar.
In addition to Sergej Barbarez, the professional staff includes Ninoslav Milenkovic and Siniša Mrkobrada, members of the Serbian people. Barbarez’s father is also Serbian. It’s stupid for me to talk about such topics, who’s who. Jovo Lukić was invited, it’s purely a game thing that he was in the stands for both games because he had an injured hand and arrived at the gathering with an injury. Unfortunately, these things are just like that in these areas. We must do our work responsibly and have a clear vision and plan,” concluded Zeljković.
He added that the fact that he is related by blood to the former president of the RS was never a problem for him.
