Anel Ahmedhodžić, born on 26 March 1999 (age 27), is a Bosnia and Herzegovina central defender with Burnley. At 6ft 3in (1.90m), he is an imposing presence, and his current market value is around £15.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league season came with Sheffield United in 2022-23, when he scored six goals in 34 appearances. That return from centre-half was useful rather than decorative, and it helped underline why he has generally been viewed as more than just a stopper.
He is now at Burnley, where in 2026-27 he has made four Championship appearances and one League Cup appearance, giving him five in total across all competitions. The shape of his career to this point is straightforward enough: a tall, established defender who built his strongest league campaign at Sheffield United and is now part of Burnley’s first-team squad.
