Igor Vasilyevich Gamula[1] (Russian: Игорь Васильевич Гамула, Ukrainian: Ігор Васильович Гамула; 17 February 1960 – 8 December 2021) was a Ukrainian and Russian professional football coach and player. He was also a scout for FC Rostov. He made his debut in the Soviet Top League in 1978 for FC Zorya Voroshylovhrad. Gamula had Ukrainian and Russian citizenship.

Managerial career[edit]

Gamula was appointed manager of FC Rostov on 25 September 2014[2] following the resignation of Miodrag Božović.[3]

Following FC Rostov's 1–0 win over FC Ural, Gamula became involved in a racism row following question to the possibility of Rostov signing Benoit Angbwa, saying that six "dark-skinned players" was sufficient for the team.[4] On 12 November Gamula was handed a five-game ban following his remarks.[5]

On 18 December, Gamula was appointed Rostov's youth team manager,[6] with Kurban Berdyev replacing him as manager of the first team.[7]

Gamula died on 8 December 2021, at the age of 61.[8]
