Edin Dzeko may have struggled to win over a portion of Manchester City supporters, but he certainly has fans in Eastern Europe.
The striker, who scored for Bosnia and Herzegovina in their 4-1 drubbing of Liechtenstein on Friday, has an admirer in nearby Croatia.
Pop star Severina Vuckovic went to Instagram to post a picture of herself in a signed City shirt with Dzeko’s name on the back.

And the former Wolfsburg man was so pleased that he shared it with his Twitter followers.
The 41-year-old is a Croatian sensation having released 11 albums over the last two decades.
She also performed for her country at the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest.
As for Bosnia – which borders Croatia – they will definitely qualify for next summer’s World Cup from Group G if they win away in Lithuania on Tuesday.
It’ll be the first time the country – which 20 years ago was in the grips of a civil war – has reached the pinnacle, with Dzeko clearly in a good mood about the prospect.
