Making his mark at Benfica, Amar Dedic grabs headlines in Bosnia | OneFootball

Amar Dedic received, on the last day, an award related to humanitarian aid actions that the defender has carried out in his home country. Absent from Benfica training, as he is on duty with the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team, the signing who fills Alexander Bah’s spot was highlighted in the local media.

As reported by the newspaper Record, the right-back, who arrived at Estádio da Luz this season, is currently on duty with his national team, which made it possible for him to receive the decoration marking International Humanitarian Aid Day.

Amar Dedic has been the first-choice right-back for the Eagles since the official start of the season, thanks largely to his quality on the pitch, but also because his direct ‘rival’, Alexander Bah, remains unavailable due to a serious injury.

However, the Bosnian will soon face competition from the Dane, who hasn’t played since February. Yesterday, Benfica released a video in which the number 6 appears in a conversation with Manu Silva. The two players, who are very close to returning to José Mourinho’s options, recalled the difficult moments they went through.

Signed from Salzburg, the defender is one of the 2024/25 reinforcements. In the current season, Amar Dedic — currently valued at 13 million euros — has so far played a total of 14 official matches. In the 1,204 minutes he has spent on the pitch, the number 17 has recorded one goal and one assist.
