Bajcetic is therefore expected to be seen part of Spain’s U-21, who are now being coached by Santi Denia, who knows the Liverpool player ‘perfectly’.

The national team’s intention is also to make sure that Bajcetic continues to play for his country, since his Serbian heritage could perhaps make him change his mind.
