Club career

Early career

Košpo started playing football at a local club, before joining FC Aarau's youth setup in 2012. In 2015, he switched to Grasshopper's youth academy. In July 2023, he moved to Barcelona's youth setup.[1]

Fiorentina

In July 2025, Košpo was transferred to Italian side Fiorentina for an undisclosed fee.[2] He made his professional debut against Hellas Verona on 4 April 2026 at the age of 18.[3]

International career

Despite representing Switzerland at various youth levels and captaining them at the under-17 level under coach Luigi Pisino, Košpo decided to play for Bosnia and Herzegovina at the senior level.[4]

In August 2025, his request to change sports citizenship from Swiss to Bosnian was approved by FIFA.[5] Earlier that month, he received his first senior call up, for 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against San Marino and Austria.[6] He debuted against the former on 6 September.[7]
