Sead Haksabanovic is looking forward to sampling his first Balkan derby clash over the next couple of weeks but he is confident it won’t be a patch on the Parkhead grudge match.
The Hoops ace will be part of the Montenegro squad who will face Bulgaria on Friday before a Euro 2024 showdown with neighbours Serbia in Podgorica a few days later. It’s a mouthwatering clash between two nations who were bolted together after the breakup of the former Yugoslavia and only became separate nations in 2006.
There might not be the same bitterness between the countries are there remains in some parts of the region but Haksabanovic knows there will be plenty of spice when the Brave Falcons square up to their Balkan big brothers. The Podgorica City Stadium will be bouncing – but there are another three massive Glasgow Derby clashes on the horizon and the Celt reckons the international dust up will struggle to compete.
