Meho Kodro is one of the most popular and richest Bosnian Football Manager who was born on January 12, 1967 in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Mehmed “Meho” Kodro, a Bosnian former footballer, was born 12 January 1967. He played as both a striker and as a manager.
Kodro, 32 years old, returned to Basque in 1999 and joined Deportivo Alaves as a loanee for the 1999-2000 season. After a year spent in Israel playing for Maccabi Tel Aviv FC, he retired from football in the next year.
On 5 January 2008, Kodro was appointed head coach of Bosnia and Herzegovina, accepting the job after the Bosnian Football Federation met his conditions, which were to allow him to continue living in San Sebastián and to guarantee him full independence in football matters. Things quickly went sour, however: he led the side in two friendlies before refusing to take charge of the team for a game against Iran scheduled for 26 May in Tehran, arranged by the federation without his knowledge; as a result, he was fired on 17 May.
When the Yugoslav Wars began, Kodro migrated to Spain – after scoring five goals in only five matches in the last edition of the Yugoslavian championship – where he spent the vast majority of his remaining career. He first played with Real Sociedad of San Sebastián, always netting in double digits for the Basques, including 23 in 1993–94 and a career-best 25 in the following year (including a hat-trick in the Basque derby) and finishing second in the Pichichi Trophy race to Real Madrid’s Iván Zamorano.
Kodro was bought by FC Barcelona in the 1995 off-season. He started throughout the campaign, but managed only nine La Liga goals, including two against Real Madrid (3-0 at home). Barca was left without silverware after Johan Cruyff, their manager, refused to sign him. Kodro also left Camp Nou and joined CD Tenerife, where he played three years. He contributed two goals in six Canary Islands semi-final runs in the UEFA Cup. In 1998-99, his team lost the top flight and he was relegated.
