For the second time, AS Roma fans chose Edin Dzeko for the best team player in 2018.
Dzeko won with 45% of the votes, followed by Kostas Manolas (29%), Danielle De Rossi (18%) and Aleksandar Kolarov (8%).
Over the past year, Dzeko achieved 18 goals in AS Roma jersey, and made ten of them in the Champions League, which made him the best shooter of this year’s competition.
To recall, fans chose Dzeko last year in front of Radja Nainggolan as the best player.
A former youth international for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Džeko made his senior international debut in 2007, earning 99 caps and scoring 55 goals since. Džeko became the highest Bosnia and Herzegovina goalscorer of all time on 7 September 2012 in a game against Liechtenstein where he scored a hat-trick to surpass Zvjezdan Misimović and Elvir Bolić. On 11 September 2018, in a game against Austria, he played his 95th game for Bosnia and Herzegovina and surpassed Emir Spahić to become country’s most-capped player. His ten goals in the qualifying campaign helped his national team qualify for its first international tournament, the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
