Sanel Ibrahimović

 * ... that to receive a work permit to play in Luxembourg, Bosnian footballer Sanel Ibrahimović had to pretend to be a specialist in his country's cuisine? Source:  "Le problème, c’était que pour qu’il puisse jouer, il lui fallait une autorisation de travail et donc, pour ça, justifier être spécialisé en quelque chose. Alors je l’ai embauché dans mon hôtel en disant qu’il était spécialiste de la cuisine bosnienne. Je ne sais même pas s’il sait cuisiner, il faisait les petits-déjeuners". "The problem was that in order for him to play, he needed a work permit and therefore he had to be a specialist in something. So I hired him in my hotel saying that he was a specialist in Bosnian cuisine. I don't even know if he can cook, he made the breakfast"

 * Comment - I suppose we could make an Easter egg link playing on the fact that he has the same surname as the much more famous Zlatan Ibrahimović, but to readers who don't know football that would just look banal to say something like "...Ibrahimovic was voted Luxembourgish footballer of the Year" Harambe Walks (talk) 20:03, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Hi Harambe Walks, review follows: article created 3 September; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; the majority of the sources are in foreign languages but I discerned no copyright violations from the English language sources; hook is interesting and cited in article; hook fact checks out to a French football news site; user only has three DYK credits (according to the checker) so no QPQ is required; looks good to go to me - Dumelow (talk) 07:39, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
