At the press conference held in BiH's capital Sarajevo, Ibisevic emotionally said that he has been thinking a lot about his decision after his team failed to book a ticket in next year's World Cup in Russia.
"I decided that if we do not qualify for the World Cup in Russia, I will say goodbye to the national jersey. I have made my decision to retreat," Ibisevic told reporters.
"I will be the biggest fan of this team and I wish a lot of success to Bosnia and Herzegovina," Ibisevic concluded.
Ibisevic, 33, currently plays as a striker for Hertha and has a contract until June 2019. After more than a decade playing for the BiH soccer team, Vedad Ibisevic has played 74 games and scored 26 goals.
