Subramaniam s/o Sooryapparad (born 31 August 1985) is a Malaysian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Liga Super club, Kelantan FA and the Malaysia national team. He also may operate as right-back and sometimes as a defensive midfielder.
Subramaniam began his football career in 2004 playing for Perak FA youth team.
In 2006 while still playing for Perak FA, Subramaniam was loaned out to Liga Premier club, UPB-MyTeam for two seasons. That time he played under coach Bojan Hodak. MyTeam finished the 2006–07 season as runners-up behind PDRM, and as a result were promoted to the Liga Super in 2007–08 season.
He was recalled to Perak for their Piala Malaysia campaign, in which he excelled along the campaign. Ironically Perak coach Steve Darby was originally unaware that Subramaniam was actually a Perak player. As a result of these performances, Subramaniam was called up for various matches with the national team. He only made six appearances for Perak for the entire 2007 season. He was one of a handful of players who remained with Perak at the end of 2008 following the team's financial difficulties. Subramaniam was announced as Perak team captain for the 2009 season, replacing Ahmad Shahrul Azhar.
