Four days later, in the away game, Hajrović scored his first goal for Bosnia and Herzegovina, coming on from the bench in the 77th minute of the game. His very first contact with the ball after just a few seconds on the pitch resulted in a goal from long range, which brought Bosnia a crucial victory.

On 31 August 2015, Hajrović was sent on a season-long loan to Spanish outfit Eibar.

Upon returning from loan spell, Hajrović managed to secure first-team spot at Werder Bremen. However, on 3 December 2016, he suffered a severe knee injury, which was diagnosed as anterior cruciate ligament tear and ruled him out for the remainder of season.
