In late July 2026 Bosnian clubs continued to use loan agreements to give young players senior‑level experience abroad. FK Sarajevo sent three prospects—forward Jack Senga, Gelson Rocha and midfielder Ante Pokrajčić—to Croatian second‑division side NK Dugopolje for the 2026‑27 season, aiming to aid their development under coach Eldin Čengić.

A week later, 19‑year‑old defender Amar Ibrišimović was loaned from German club Schalke 04 to FK Željezničar Sarajevo for the upcoming season, while fellow Bosnian‑Krajina forward Tarik Seferović moved on loan to Swiss side FC Wil 1990, indicating a broader pattern of Bosnian talent gaining experience through temporary moves to clubs in neighboring and Central European leagues.
