Multiple outlets note Dzeko’s long service to Bosnia, highlighting his record as the country’s most-capped player and leading scorer. Al Jazeera reports he finishes with 151 appearances and 73 goals. Other coverage, including Vanguard and Free Malaysia Today, focuses on the timing of the retirement announcement and the specific match against Sweden that will be his last international game.
