Published on: 07 October 2026

Edin Dzeko has ended his international career with Bosnia and Herzegovina, but former Schalke striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar believes the veteran forward may also struggle to find a place at club level.

Huntelaar said Dzeko does not entirely fit the way Schalke play, raising doubts over whether the Bosnian striker would be the right option for the German club.

Huntelaar, a Netherlands international, ended his playing career in 2021.
