Neven Subotić (pronounced [něʋen sûbotitɕ]; Serbian Cyrillic: Heвeн Cубoтић; born 10 December 1988) is a Serbian footballer who plays as a centre back for the German Bundesliga club 1. FC Köln on loan from Borussia Dortmund. He made his first-team debut in the 2006–07 season for 1. FSV Mainz 05. In 2008, he signed with Borussia Dortmund.
Born in Banja Luka, Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, to Bosnian Serb parents, father Željko from the village of Kulaši and mother Svjetlana from Brestovo, Subotić spent his early childhood in Prnjavor. In 1990, when Subotić was two years old, his father went to Germany in search of work. In 1994, with the Bosnian War raging, the rest of the family including five-year-old Neven, his sister and their mother joined their father in Germany, settling in Schömberg. Neven took up football at the age of seven with the local outfit TSV Schwarzenberg.
In the late 1990s, the Subotić family's residence authorization in Germany expired and in order to avoid being deported back to Bosnia, they opted to move to the United States in 1999. They settled in Salt Lake City, Utah, where Subotić's father had a cousin. Subotić played football with Sparta Gold and Impact Black youth clubs.
