ini dia profile lengkapnya:

Ibišević was born in SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, then a republic within SFR Yugoslavia prior to declaring independence from SFR Yugoslavia in 1992. He and his family left Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2000, moving to Switzerland where Ibišević was signed by FC Baden in Canton Aargau. However, his family left Switzerland after only ten months, moving to St. Louis in the United States. In St. Louis, Ibišević flourished as one of the region's most promising football players, and after his senior season in 2002, was named by Soccer America as one of the nation's top 25 recruits. He played his high school career at Roosevelt High School.

Vedad signed to play college soccer in his adopted hometown at one of the nation's most respected football establishments, Saint Louis University. He quickly established himself in his freshman year, registering 18 goals and 4 assists in 22 games for the Billikens, while leading a strong SLU team deep into the NCAA Tournament. For his achievements, Ibišević was named the NCAA Freshman of the Year, as well as a first team All-American. During his college years he also played in the USL Premier Development League with both the St. Louis Strikers and Chicago Fire Premier.[2]

During training with the team, he was spotted by Paris Saint-Germain F.C.'s Bosnian and Herzegovinian manager Vahid Halilhodžić, who quickly signed him to play for the renowned French team for the coming season. Vedad initially saw little action, and was loaned to French second division club Dijon FCO. In 2005, he signed a two year contract with Dijon.

In May 2006, he signed a 3-year deal with Alemannia Aachen and on July 12, 2007 he moved to another German club, TSG 1899 Hoffenheim.

Vedad Ibišević kicked off the Fußball-Bundesliga 2008-09 season in good fashion, scoring two goals in Hoffenheim's first ever appearance in the Fußball-Bundesliga against Energie Cottbus with the game ending 3-0 in Hoffenheim's favor. He scored another goal on his second game against Borussia Mönchengladbach. In his third game for the club in the Fußball-Bundesliga, he scored his fourth goal of the season against Bayer Leverkusen but his side lost 5-2. He scored another two goals in Hoffenheim's 4-1 win over Borussia Dortmund. During the first half of Hoffenheim's debut season in the top flight, Ibišević recorded 18 goals and 7 assists in 17 games, making him the league's top scorer before he was injured. He was voted Bundesliga Player of the Month for October, 2008. On January 14, 2009, during the Bundesliga's winter break, Ibišević was injured in a training match against Hamburger SV. The final examination confirmed an anterior right cruciate ligament rupture, which took him out of action for the rest of the 2008-09 season.[3] After the season, he signed a contract extension that will keep him at Hoffenheim until the end of the 2012–13 season.[4]

Besides his native Bosnian, he is fluent in English, French and German languages. Whilst playing for Alemannia Aachen, the striker was also given the job of official translator during training for the many foreign players who had not mastered German.
