Montpellier defender Emir Spahic has recovered from swine flu in
time to take part in Bosnia’s World Cup qualifiers against Armenia
(Saturday) and Turkey (Wednesday).
According to French newspaper L’Equipe, Spahic underwent tests last
weekend that confirmed he no longer has the virus. The 29-year-old
defender had been sidelined for about a week.
Spahic has been one of the key figures at Ligue 1 outfit Montpellier
this season since joining them from Lokomotiv Moscow. The defender
has scored twice in his fist three league matches.
Bosnia have collected 12 points after six matches in Group 5 and
currently sit second in the table. They trail table-toppers Spain by
six points, but have a comfortable four-point lead on third placed
side Turkey.
