Football Club Željezničar and SC Medeama have now become official club partners, with the signing of a co-operation agreement between the two clubs.
A long-term friendship between the two clubs became official this week. After months of close dialogues between the clubs’ chairmen Mr Samir Ceric of FK Zeljenzicar and Mr Moses Armah of SC Medeama, Željezničar and SC Medeama have now entered into a wide-ranging official partnership that binds the two clubs closer together heading into the future.
The Bosnian giants as the most successful football club of Bosnia of all time have joined forces with Medeama in order to establish a bridge between Ghana and Bosnia and Africa and the Balkans. The Ghanaian side is this year’s main contender to win the league title and have shown big aspirations to raise the club’s profile and bring out some of its best first team and academy players onto the international stage through this partnership.

As part of the arrangement, the SC Medeama Academy and their first team will travel to Bosnia to train at FK Željezničar’s facilities, with the aim to bring the two clubs closer together.
FK Željezničar Chairman, Samir Ceric believes this partnership can help both clubs on the international stage.
"Entering this partnership in a period of unprecedented growth of African football marks a cross-road for our own club but also offers a great opportunity to build a bridge between Ghana and Bosnia as well as Africa and the Balkans which can dramatically increase both clubs’ chances of success and position us both much higher on the international stage. Both countries are huge hubs of talent and I believe we will learn a great deal from each other throughout this partnership and open up opportunities for each other we would not have been able to do otherwise."
President of Medeama, Moses Armah acknowledged that the partnership will help both clubs expand.
"There is an infectious enthusiasm for the game and we seek to leverage on this partnership to broaden the frontiers of FK Željezničar in Africa. This partnership will also help to strengthen the two-pronged relationship between Ghana and Bosnia and expand the activities of the two clubs on the African continent and in Europe. The partnership will expand the club’s fan base in the Balkans and in Europe, highlighting the club’s continues growth, emerging brand, and philosophy to the rest of the world."
