Vedad Ibišević (Bosnian pronunciation: ; born 6 August 1984) is a Bosnian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Bundesliga club Hertha BSC.
Ibišević started his professional career at Paris Saint-Germain. He had a two-year loan stint with Dijon, and afterwards went to Germany, where he played for Alemannia Aachen, 1899 Hoffenheim, VfB Stuttgart, before eventually settling in Hertha BSC. In 2008, he was awarded the Idol Nacije award for Bosnian Footballer of the Year.
A former youth international for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Ibišević made his senior international debut in 2007. He earned over 80 caps and scored 28 goals until 2018. Ibišević scored a goal that took Bosnia and Herzegovina to 2014 FIFA World Cup, nation's first major tournament, where he also scored their first goal.
Ibišević was born in Vlasenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina, then a republic within SFR Yugoslavia. He and his family left Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2000 to move to Switzerland, where Ibišević was signed by FC Baden in Canton Aargau. His family, however, left Switzerland after only ten months, moving to St. Louis, Missouri, in the United States. In St. Louis, Ibišević flourished as one of the region's most promising football players, and after his senior season in 2002, was named by Soccer America as one of the nation's top 25 recruits. He played his high school football at Roosevelt High School in St. Louis.
