Midfielder Miralem Pjanic, 34, announced the end of his career with the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team on his Instagram page.
Miralem Pjanic"After 16 years, the moment has come for my Bosnia and Herzegovina to say it's over. It is definitely one of the most difficult decisions I had to make, but I say with great pride and real pleasure - enough is enough.
I played 115 games, experienced so much joy going to the World Cup - it was a dream I had as a kid and it became a reality. I have always worn my country's shirt with love and pride, playing for my nation and for our loyal fans around the world.
Thank you to all the selectors, medical staff and economists who supported us during this trip. Thank you to the fans from BiH for believing in me and helping me realise my dream and play for the country I love. The biggest thanks to my parents and the whole family, you have been my strength and support in everything.
I have been a proud Bosnian at every club I have played for, always striving to be a role model for our children, hoping that one day they too will move on to the greatest clubs in the world. I wish the national team all the best for the future. Sergei, mister, I wish you all the best, you have been a role model for me. You led us to the heights, I hope you will lead us to the path of success again.
I love you, my Bosnia," the footballer wrote.
Pjanic played 115 matches for the national team, scored 17 goals and gave 29 assists. The player will continue to play for the club Al Sharji.
