Managerial career
Early into his managerial career, Živadinović spent one and a half years at the helm of
In 1986, Živadinović took over as manager of Yugoslav First League side Budućnost Titograd. He enjoyed success with the club, notably beating Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb during the 1986–87 season. Under his guidance, Dejan Savićević became an integral part of the team and made his Yugoslavia international debut.[5][6]
In 1992, following his second stint at Budućnost Titograd, Živadinović was hired as manager of Red Star Belgrade. He managed the club for two seasons, winning the 1992–93 FR Yugoslavia Cup by defeating arch-rivals Partizan on penalties.
In August 1998, Živadinović was appointed as manager of FR Yugoslavia, replacing Slobodan Santrač following the 1998 FIFA World Cup. He led the team at the start of the qualifying campaign for UEFA Euro 2000, taking the maximum nine points in his three games in charge. However, in July 1999, it was reported that Živadinović would take over as manager of Saudi club Al Nassr after the conclusion of Yugoslavia's involvement in the Euro 2000 qualifiers. He was consequently dismissed from his job with the national team and replaced by Vujadin Boškov.[7]
During the 2000s and early 2010s, Živadinović served as manager of several African and Asian nations, including Iraq,[8] Ghana,[9] Yemen, and Myanmar. He guided Iraq at the 2000 AFC Asian Cup, exiting the tournament in the quarter-finals.
