Milivoje Novaković (born 18 May 1979 in Ljubljana) is a Slovenian footballer who plays for 1. FC Köln and the Slovenia national team.

Club career

He is currently playing for German Bundesliga team 1. FC Köln as an attacker. Milivoje came to 1. FC Köln from the Bulgarian PFC Litex Lovech, where he rose to prominence. He has also played for the Austrian club LASK Linz, having begun his career with Olimpija Ljubljana.[1]

With Litex he reached the UEFA Cup 2005-06 round of 32, came third in the Bulgarian A Professional Football Group and became the championship's top goalscorer.

He had been linked with German team 1. FC Köln,[1] Israeli team Beitar Jerusalem FC[2] and Bulgarian champions Levski Sofia,[3] but he nevertheless played for Litex in the UEFA Cup 2006-07 against his compatriots FC Koper and AC Omonia from Cyprus despite his wish to continue his career in a different team.[4] He finally joined 1. FC Köln in late August 2006 for around 1.5 million.[5] He was the top goalscorer in the 2. German Bundesliga during the 07/08 season with the club.

On 12 September 2008 coach Christoph Daum made him captain of the first team squad of 1. FC Köln. During 2008/2009 season he led his team (1. FC Köln) with 16 goals in the 1. German Bundesliga. In late November 2009 he lost his captaincy due to a dispute with Cologne's new manager Zvonimir Soldo.
