Christoph Dabrowski (born 1 August 1978) is a German football manager and former footballer of Polish descent. He has played for Werder Bremen, Arminia Bielefeld, Hannover 96 and VfL Bochum.

He is currently the assistant manager of Hannover 96.

Biography

Early years

Dabrowski was born in Katowice and emigrated in the age of six years with his mother as an ethnic German (Aussiedler) — his maternal grandfather had served in the German Wehrmacht and therefore got an Aussiedler status — from his country of birth and settled in West-Berlin.

National team career

Dabrowski owns dual citizenship (German-Polish) and in October 2005 the Polish Football Association requested to nominate Dabrowski for their national team. However, the FIFA rejected the request because Dabrowski was not entitled to play for Poland, as he had already played for the German Team 2006.
