Rado Vidošić (born September 25, 1961) is an Australian football (soccer) manager, who last worked as the assistant manager of A-League club Melbourne Victory.[1]

Managerial career

Brisbane Roar

Vidošić had served as the assistant coach of Brisbane Roar since their inaugural A-League season. He served as the club's caretaker manager from 10 October 2009 to 15 October 2009 after manager Frank Farina was sacked due to drink-driving charges. He was succeeded by former Australia U-20 team manager Ange Postecoglou. On 25 April 2012, he was named as the new manager of Brisbane, following the departure of Ange Postecoglou, who left to manage his hometown club Melbourne Victory.[2]

On 18 December 2012, just 11 games into the season, after a poor run of results in the 2012–13 season and with the Roar sitting 9th out of 10 teams on the ladder, Vidošić was reassigned to the role of technical director, and was replaced by Melbourne Victory W-League manager Mike Mulvey as interim coach until May 2013.

Sydney FC

In June 2013, Sydney FC signed Vidošić as Assistant Coach.[3] working alongside Frank Farina once again.

Return to Brisbane Roar

In December 2014, Sydney FC announced that Vidošić had returned to Brisbane for personal reasons.[4] Despite being a former head coach and technical director, he subsequently took the unusual step of taking up an assistant coaching role with his former club Brisbane Roar [5] [6]

Melbourne Victory

On 13 July 2015, Vidošić joined Melbourne Victory as an assistant coach, following the resignation of Jean-Paul de Marigny.[7] On 31 May 2016, after one season at the club, Vidošić left his role as the result of the return of former assistant coach de Marigny.[8]

Personal life

His son is Australia national football team and Western Sydney Wanderers player Dario Vidošić.[9] On 4 November 2012, Vidošić managed the Brisbane Roar against Dario's Adelaide United at Suncorp Stadium, with Dario's goal in the 3rd minute of the match securing victory for Adelaide United over his father's team.
