Eduardo wants to play for his country again

18 December 2008

A Croatian football player who has not played for his country for ten months says he wants to return to take part in a match for his home team.

Brazilian-born striker Eduardo would like to play for Croatia in an international friendly game against Romania, which will take place in February.

The 25-year-old has been out of action after suffering from a broken leg when he was tackled in a match against Birmingham earlier this year.

Eduardo told Croatian sports paper Sportske Novosti: "I can't wait to play my first match in a Croatia shirt. I think it could be in February when we play Romania."

The football player recently returned to play for his Premier League club Arsenal for 45 minutes in their 2-0 win against Portsmouth reserves, but suffered from a hamstring injury during the game.

He hopes he can be back in action for his club when they begin their campaign in the Football Association Cup in January.
