Mehmed Alispahić (born 24 November 1987) is a Bosnian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Alispahić began his career with Iskra Bugojno in the First League of FBiH.[1] He then joined Croatian 1. HNL club Šibenik in 2008. In May 2011, Alispahić agreed to a transfer to Dinamo Zagreb, where he stayed for a year and a half, before moving on a free transfer to Rijeka in late December 2012.

After a short spell at Sarajevo, he returned to Šibenik. On 1 June 2016, he and Jamilu Collins missed their penalties in a penalty shoot-out against Istra 1961 and Istra gained promotion, while Šibenik remained in the second tier.[2]

After leaving Šibenik in the summer of 2018, he signed with Bosnian Premier League club Sloboda Tuzla in June of that same year.[3] After only one season of playing for the club, Alispahić left Sloboda in June 2019.[4]

On 20 June 2019, he signed a two-year contract with Željezničar.[5] Alispahić made his official debut for Željezničar on 20 July 2019, in a 0–0 home league draw against Borac Banja Luka.[6] He scored his first goal for Željezničar in a thrilling 5–2 home league match, Sarajevo derby win against his former club Sarajevo on 31 August 2019.[7] Alispahić left Željezničar on 2 July 2021.[8]

International career

[edit]

After an impressive finish to the 2009–10 season with Šibenik, including some spectacular goals, he received his first call-up to the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team in May 2010 for the friendly matches against Sweden and Germany.

He made his debut against Sweden, coming on as a substitute in the second half, and has earned a total of 4 caps, scoring no goals. His final international was a May 2012 match against Mexico.[9]

Personal life

[edit]

Alispahić's younger brother Sabit was also a professional footballer.[10]
