A‍ peculiar debate arose this week surrounding FC Schalke 04. following a slow start to the 2. Bundesliga season with just three points from five games, questions were⁢ raised about the prevalence of Bosnian being spoken in the locker room, given that head⁤ coach⁢ Miron Muslic, defender Nikola Katic, and winter signings Dejan Ljubicic (from Dinamo Zagreb) and Edin Dzeko (from AC Fiorentina) all have Bosnian roots. Captain Kenan Karaman ‍ addressed the issue on Sport1, stating: “I can assure you that it’s ⁣not a problem for us. We have enough languages spoken in the dressing room. That’s why it won’t be as of ⁢Bosnian.” ‍ https://www.sport1.de/news/fussball/2-bundesliga/2024/02/schalke-04-kenan-karaman-verteidigt-bosnische-sprache-im-team

On Sunday,Schalke secured a⁣ crucial 2-1 victory against ⁤Holstein Kiel,moving them into the league lead. Karaman led ⁤the charge, scoring the opening goal with an assist from dzeko. Dzeko’s arrival has demonstrably benefited⁣ Karaman, who at 31, had previously been the ‍primary experienced attacking option. Dzeko, at 39, provides valuable experience and support,⁢ and has⁢ also contributed with assists (including the second goal in the Kiel match). Karaman has reportedly⁣ expressed⁢ feeling revitalized by Dzeko’s presence.[https://wwwsueddeutschede/sport/fussball/[https://wwwsueddeutschede/sport/fussball/[https://wwwsueddeutschede/sport/fussball/[https://wwwsueddeutschede/sport/fussball/
