In Mostar we have the Old Bridge. It is great for diving. I will probably jump off it once, after I finish my football career; said Asmir Begović, goalkeeper in the national team of BiH and goalkeeper of Chelsea.
In the column “Near&Far”, in which the players of Chelsea speak about their countries, Behović said that his hometown Trebinje is his favorite place in BiH. He also said that Sarajevo and Mostar are beautiful.
“Bosnians and Herzegovinians are passionate people, dedicated and hardworking,” Begović described his fellow citizens.
Begović also added that, in addition to football, other popular sports in BiH are basketball, handball and volleyball.
“We are a tall nation and we are talented for those sports,” Begović claims, adding that he wasn’t living in Trebinje from the age of 4 until the age of 19, because of the war.
Speaking of football, Begović highlighted two BiH clubs.
“We have historical clubs such as Sarajevo and Željezničar. Great players who come from Bosnia are Safet Sušić, Sergej Barbarez, Edin Džeko. We are a very talented nation,” Begović said.
