Ciprić also won a prominent minifootball tournament "Kutija Šibica" in 1989, playing together with Zvonimir Boban and Robert Prosinečki for minifootball club Termotehna Šela.[2]
Coaching career
[edit]As manager, Ciprić led the Dinamo Zagreb youth team,[3] Hrvatski Dragovoljac,[4] HAŠK,[4] and NK Zagreb.[3] As assistant, he worked at Dinamo Zagreb,[5] Croatia U21, NK Zagreb,[3] Slaven Belupo, Kayserispor, Azerbaijan national team, Bosnia and Herzegovina national team, Denizlispor, Olimpija Ljubljana, Rudeš, and Montenegro national team.
He was also the personal coach of footballer Robert Prosinečki when he was playing at Portsmouth and Standard Liège.[6] From 2007 to 2012, he served as a scout of the Croatia national football team.[7] He has also worked with many Croatian coaches such as Slaven Bilić, Ivo Šušak, and Nikola Jurčević.[8][9][10]
On 15 October 2012, it was confirmed that he would be the assistant manager of Prosinečki at Kayserispor.[11] After leaving Kayserispor, he was appointed on 4 December 2014 as the assistant of Prosinečki at the Azerbaijan national team.[12][13] On 27 October 2017, Prosinečki left the Azerbaijan national team together with his assistants.[14][15]
