Dženan Uščuplić (born 18 August 1975) is a Bosnian professional football manager and former player who is the manager of the Sarajevo U19 team.

Playing career

As a player of Sarajevo on three occasions, Uščuplić won 3 Bosnian cup titles and one supercup with the club. He also played for Olimpik. He retired in the summer of 2002[1] at the age of 27 because of a chronic knee injury sustained in April 1998.

Managerial career

After being forced to retire from football, Uščuplić spent 9 years in the Sarajevo youth academy and as an assistant to former first team manager Robert Jarni, before being named manager in 2014.[2] In his debut season he led the club to a cup triumf, ending a seven-season silverware drought.[3] On 26 September 2014, Uščuplić was relieved of his duties as Sarajevo manager after a string of disappointing results, and returned to the club's youth academy where he completed the UEFA Pro Licence program.[4]

On 21 April 2015, he was again named manager of Sarajevo after the club management sacked Meho Kodro.[5] This time Uščuplić led Sarajevo to a league triumph shortly after being named the new manager.[6] On 11 September 2015, Uščuplić and his whole staff were sacked after a series of poor results that culminated with yet another loss, this time against Slavija Sarajevo.[7]
