Edin Dzeko’s relationship and family
On March 31, 2014, Džeko tied the knot with his girlfriend Amra Silajdžić, an actress and model from Bosnia who is two years older than him.
The couple has managed to keep almost everything about their four incredible children hidden from the public eye.
Their first child, a daughter named Una, was born in February 2016, followed by Ronaldo’s admirer Dani Dzeko, who was born in September 2017.
On September 12, 2020, the couple welcomed their third child, Dalia Džeko, into the world, and they also recently celebrated the birth of their fourth child, Hana Džeko.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Edin Dzeko
Cristiano Ronaldo and Edin Dzeko are both seasoned forwards in their 30s who continue to defy age and perform at a high level.
They have consistently troubled defenders throughout their careers. Milan Skriniar, a defender for Inter, recently praised their remarkable qualities.
When asked about his toughest opponents between Ronaldo and Dzeko, Skriniar highlighted Ronaldo’s speed and determination, making it difficult to single out one as the strongest.
He said: “I don’t really know who the strongest is, because they are all different. Ronaldo, for example, was very fast and would fight for every ball.”
“So it’s tough to single one out as the strongest.”
Dzeko has been an instrumental player for both Bosnia and Fenerbahce, offering a valuable combination of goals and assists.
He is well-known for his physicality, strength, and ability in the air. In his eight club matches this season, he has scored six goals and provided two assists.
He has also made an impact in the qualifiers, with one goal and one assist in the six matches he has played.
On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo has reached an impressive milestone of 200 national team appearances, displaying his aspiration to participate in the UEFA Euro 2024 scheduled to hold in Germany.
Portugal’s place in the UEFA Euro was confirmed after a thrilling 3-2 victory against Slovakia, thanks to the impressive contribution of Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored two goals.
In the EUFA Euro Qualifiers, he has managed to score seven goals in just six games for Portugal.
Besides his exceptional performance on the field, Ronaldo is renowned worldwide as an influential figure.
With his remarkable skills, Ronaldo’s two goals played a crucial role in Portugal’s narrow escape from a potential draw or defeat against Slovakia.
Edin Dzeko breaks Ronaldo’s record

Dzeko, at the age of 36 years and 307 days, achieved this feat with his goal against reigning champions AC Milan.
The Italian Serie A press service confirmed this remarkable achievement.
In comparison, Ronaldo had scored his Supercup goal at the age of 35 years and 350 days.
In their UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers, Bosnia and Herzegovina will welcome a strong Portugal team who are in excellent form.
