Dražen Brnčić (born 17 July 1971) is a Croatian-born Belgian footballer.

Biography

Brnčić started his youth career in SR Croatia but left for Belgium after Croatia declared its independence.

He joined a local side Asse for a year before transferring to Charleroi, where he played regularly in the Belgian First Division and spotted by European teams. He eventually transferred to Serie B side Cremonese,[1] before moving to Lombardy to join Monza. He played 37 Serie B matches for Monza as they were relegated; the next season, he was loaned to Serie B club Vicenza and won promotion to Serie A.

In the 2000-01 season he joined A.C. Milan, but only played one league matches, three Coppa Italia matches[2][3] and one Champions League match due to injuries.

Before the start of the following season, he was signed by Internazionale[4] as part of the transfer that saw Andrea Pirlo move to Milan. He never played for Inter and spent his two years at the club on loan to Serie B sides Ancona and Venezia.

In June 2003, he was released by Inter and went on trial at Vitesse Arnhem[5] before joining MVV in the Eerste Divisie.

In 2007, he joined Belgian Third Division team Visé, where he played as a defender and scored 4 goals.

Personal life

Brnčić married a Belgian woman and received Belgian nationality.

In 2012, he became the trainer of RSC Verviers (Belgium third division) for 4 month to maintain club in third division.

Season 2013-2014, with RSC Vervier he finished at the second place. Because of the club did not receive the division 2 license, the team couldn't play the final round to be promoted in second division.

Season 2014-2015, he was the trainer of Union St Giloise (Belgium third division). He did a fantastic work and his team was promoted to the second division.

Season 2015, he was the trainer of Patro Maasmechelen (Belgium second division). He decided to stop after 4 months because of the fact that the club has no ambition.

Now, he is the trainer of Seraing United (Belgium second division). This club has more ambitions and wants to go to the Belgium first division.
