Meho Kodro (born January 12, 1967 in Mostar , then SFR Yugoslavia , now Bosnia and Herzegovina ) is a former Yugoslav , later Bosnian-Herzegovinian football player and today's coach.

Player career

Kodro began his career in 1985 with Velež Mostar in what was then Yugoslavia. When the Yugoslav War broke out, he moved to Spain, where he spent the rest of his career. First he played for Real Sociedad San Sebastián , where he had his best playing time and became a feared goalscorer. In the 1993/94 season he scored 23 goals and in the following season he was the second top scorer in the league with 25 goals after Iván Zamorano .

In 1995 he was brought to FC Barcelona by Johan Cruyff . In Barcelona, ​​however, he could not prevail and scored only nine goals in one year. During this time he was physically weakened by injuries and mentally by the war that was raging in his homeland.

After just one year in Barcelona, ​​he joined CD Tenerife in 1996 , but in three years did not come close to the form he had in San Sebastian.

From 1999 to 2000 he played for Deportivo Alavés . He then played another season for Maccabi Tel Aviv and ended his career.

Kodro was part of the Yugoslav national team in 1991/92 , for which he played two games. From 1996 to 2000 he played for Bosnia and Herzegovina and played 13 games in which he scored three times.

Coaching career

From March to October 2006, he worked as assistant coach to José María Bakero at Real Sociedad San Sebastián . From January 5, 2008 he was the coach of the Bosnian-Herzegovinian national soccer team. He was released on May 16, 2008 for refusing to play a friendly against Iran that he had not agreed to play. Poland was originally intended to be the opponent of the friendly match, but the Iranian Football Association paid the Bosnian Association 100,000 euros so that the Persian team would get priority. After his dismissal as national coach for Bosnia, he returned to Real Sociedad San Sebastián and took over the Prebenjamin team. After two years at Real Sociedad's performance center, he became the coach of the reserve team of San Sebastian, which played in the Segunda Division B. On September 30, 2014 Kodro was introduced as the new head coach of the Bosnian-Herzegovinian first division club FK Sarajevo .

On January 1, 2017, Kodro was hired by the traditional Swiss club Servette FC as head coach.
