Club career

Dalibor began his career in the youth from FK Sarajevo and was promoted to the Bosnian Premier League team in March 2008.[http://bordomomci1991.blogger.ba/arhiva/2008/03/15/1431776 Dalibor Pandža - DADO] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090318020805/http://bordomomci1991.blogger.ba/arhiva/2008/03/15/1431776 |date=2009-03-18 }} on www.bordomci1991.blogger.ba As Pandža is a Bosnian Croat and a great talent, the Croatian Football Federation continued their practice with trying to get these players to play for Croatia rather than Bosnia, and offered Pandža a place in their team. But Pandža declined and stated that he only wanted to play for his country, Bosnia and Herzegovina. This made him very popular among Bosnians even though many had never heard of him or seen him play at the time.{{Cite web |url=http://sportin.ba/tekst.aspx?id=18500 |title=Sportin.ba ...najbrže sportske vijesti - Pandža: Moja želja je reprezentacija BiH |access-date=2010-08-08 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090705205222/http://www.sportin.ba/tekst.aspx?id=18500 |archive-date=2009-07-05 |url-status=dead }}
