Denis Alijagić (born 10 April 2003) is a Czech professional footballer who plays as a forward for MŠK Žilina. Born in the Czech Republic, he has represented both the Czech Republic and Bosnia and Herzegovina internationally at youth level.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Prague, Alijagić began his career with hometown Sparta Prague at the age of six.[1] Between the ages of eight and ten, he played for Český Lev - Union Beroun, before returning to Sparta.[1] In 2014, he moved to their city rivals Slavia Prague.[1]

In 2021, Alijagić was loaned to Czech National Football League side Vlašim, where he made his senior debut. In the first half of the 2021–22 season, Alijagić scored 11 league goals and four Czech Cup goals, becoming Vlašim's top scorer.[2] On 2 February 2022, he was loaned to Czech First League club Slovan Liberec,[3] where he made five league appearances and failed to score in the process.[4]

On 21 June 2022, Alijagić signed for Greek club Olympiacos.[5] However, he was not assigned to the main squad and played for their B team in the second tier Super League Greece 2, where he made two appearances in the first half of the 2022–23 season.[6] In February 2023, he was loaned to Slovenian PrvaLiga side Maribor for the second part of the 2022–23 season with the option of a loan extension or a permanent buyout.[7]

International career

[edit]

Alijagić was eligible to represent the Czech Republic through his birthplace, and Bosnia and Herzegovina through his Bosnian father.[8]

In November 2017, Alijagić made his debut for the Czech Republic's under-15 side, making four appearances at the 2017 South American U-15 Championship.[9]

Alijagić then represented Bosnia and Herzegovina at youth level,[1] before switching his national team allegiance back to the Czech Republic at under-19 level in November 2021.[9]

Style of play

[edit]

Alijagić's manager at Vlašim, Martin Hyský, has praised Alijagić's work rate, speed and his ability to use both feet. Alijagić has compared his own playing style to that of Jamie Vardy.[10]
