    Played at every youth level for Croatia from U-14 to U-21.

    Staggering they never gave him a shot at senior level, really. They will come to regret it, he'll be a regular for Bosnia.

    They have some good players.

    Begovic, Kolasinac, Pjanic, Lulic, Ibisevic and Dzeko. Few others as well playing at a good level.

    He was even captain of their under 19s and under 21s until he got that injury that kept him out in his first season for us and never played for them again.

    Apologies if this has been answered beofre but see how jozo can't play on plastic pitches

    Is it a case of he can't play on them at all or is it a precautionary measure?

    Seen a bosnian team with players that play for other countries due to their parents moving during the war. Would be one of the best in europe, ibra and shaqiri the only ones I remember though.

    He could play with a couple I think.

    Talk was of him being eligible for Kosovo.

    Ibra could just as well have played for Croatia and I'm pretty sure Bosnia is just about the only Balkan country Shaqiri couldn't play for :56:

    It's a bit of both Brendan explained it a few weeks ago for a normal player it is slightly different from grass but to Jozo it would be like playing on concrete, so that's why he doesn't play in them!

    I feel like that's a bit of a cop-out for a professional footballer though you know? You should be capable of playing on all surfaces without a massive risk of injury, particularly for a club that is a global brand and travels extensively like Celtic.

    Aye agree but Jozo is a high value player and he could risk his career and due to his knees he potentially might not be insured to play on it, stuff like that we would never know
