- Humble beginnings. The son of a German mother and Tunisian father, Khedira grew up in Fellbach-Oeffingen, a small town just north of Stuttgart in south-western Germany, with his two brothers, one of whom, Rani, is also a professional and currently plays for Augsburg.
- Stuttgart breakthrough. Before joining the Stuttgart youth ranks in 1995, he took his first tentative steps in the game at local club TV Oeffingen.
