Bosnia-Herzegovina Recruitment War! Germany Jostles Over Nationality of 2007 Serie B Rising Star

According to reports from Di Marzio, Bosnia-Herzegovina is accelerating its recruitment of Juventus player Licina, attempting to secure his allegiance before Germany makes their claim. The 2007-born player hails from Landshut, Germany, and is currently on loan from Juventus to Serie B side Cremonese. He has been representing German youth teams and recently participated in UEFA U19 European Championship qualifiers against Spain and Wales. In this Serie B campaign, he made two appearances, netting one goal and providing one assist, helping his team defeat Padova 3-1; he also scored in a 2-0 Coppa Italia win over Parma. His national team allegiance remains undecided, and Bosnia-Herzegovina hopes to replicate its earlier success in recruiting Aralicovic.
