My Take
Neven Subotić is one of those footballers I rate far beyond his on-pitch record. Born in Banja Luka, displaced by war, raised partly in the United States and schooled at the University of South Florida before becoming a commanding centre-back at Dortmund, his life already reads like a novel. At 193cm he was a genuine wall, but his real distinction is off the field: the 2022 German Order of Merit medal reflects his foundation work on clean water in Africa. A man who played for Serbia despite Bosnian roots, he embodies a life lived across borders. That depth of character earns my deep respect.
