Boris ZivkovicBoris Živković (born November 15, 1975 in Živinice, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Yugoslavia) is a Croatian football (soccer) player. He plays as a defender. Živković started his career at FK Sarajevo as a youth player, before being signed by NK Marsonia (from Slavonski Brod). He gained a good reputation at Marsonia, first appearing in the 1994/95 season, during which he made 13 appearances. The next season he played a further 31 games before transferring to NK Hrvatski Dragovoljac (from Velika Gorica). He only spent one season at his new club however, before impressive performances persuaded German club Bayer Leverkusen to sign him. Živković went on to play 6 seasons for the German club, playing over 150 times. Following his contract expiring in the summer of 2003, Živković stated his desire to play in the English FA Premier League, and was signed later that summer by Portsmouth F.C.. Živković started his Pompey career well, instantly claiming a regular starting place. However, in December, a public fall-out with manager Harry Redknapp led to him being released, having played only 18 times for the club. VfB Stuttgart stepped in to bring Živković back to Germany, and the Croatian joined them in January. Živković is a regular for the Croatia national football team. He was part of the Croatian 2004 European Football Championship team, who exited in the first round, finishing third in Group B, having finished in second place in Qualifying Group 8 in the pre-tournament phase.
