Ivaylo Petev is the new selector of the B&H national football team, it was decided today by the Executive Board of the Football Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

As he emphasized in an exclusive statement for "Avaz", he refused invitations to over 15 journalists from Bosnia and Herzegovina today.

- I have seen some texts in your media that are not very kind to me, but I manage to work professionally and have such cooperation with everyone - said Petev, and then added:

- You have no idea how much I know about the national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have been following everything with great attention for seven or eight years. I also know what was going on in the barrage. I must say that I have great sympathy for Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have a lot of friends here which are not known to public.

As he says, he still does not have the authority to go into details about the national team, but he certainly has his own vision. The truth is Petev, he was not a favorite of the public.

- It smells to me that there was little politics in everything. I don’t care about it, nor have I ever been interested in it. I am only interested in the result and nothing else. Only the field, the players, the national team and the result - Petev emphasized.
