month with a knee injury, Edin Dzeko could play for
Bosnia against Wales.
Bosnia-Herzegovina coach Mehmed Bazdarevic has refused to
rule Edin Dzeko out of his country's Euro 2016 qualifier against
Wales on Saturday.
Roma striker Dzeko has been out of action since suffering a
twisted knee during his club's 5-1 win over Carpi on September
26.
At the time the Serie A club announced that the 29-year-old
would be sidelined for between three to four weeks but,
following a conversation with Dzeko, Bazdarevic believes his
country's all-time top goalscorer may play a part in Zenica.
Bazdarevic told a press conference: "I spoke with Edin. I'm sure
he can lend a hand for the match on Saturday evening."
Assistant coach Dragan Peric added: "Despite early predictions
that were not positive, it is possible that Edin is ready for the
match against Wales. He's still doing therapy, but from what we
know he could play."
Bosnia-Herzegovina are fourth in Group B, two points behind
current play-off incumbents Israel, and travel to Cyprus for their
final qualifier next Tuesday.
