Club career

A forward, Djuricin joined Austrian Bundesliga side Austria Wien in 1991 and made 15 appearances and scored one goal before departing in 1997.[1][2] The high points of his time with Austria Wien were a late substitute appearance in the 1994 Austrian Supercup (which was lost 2–1 to Austria Salzburg) and two 1994–95 European Cup Winners' Cup appearances versus NK Branik Maribor.[3][4] He dropped into lower-league football and played for SK Vorwärts Steyr, Würnitz, St. Andrä-Wördern, Kapellerfeld and SV Donau before retiring in 2007.[2]

Management career

Djuricin has had a long career as a manager and assistant manager at club and international level.[2][1][5] He held assistant manager positions with the Austrian U18, U19 and U20 international teams between 2008 and 2011 and was involved at the 2011 U20 World Cup.[6] He has managed ASK Ebreichsdorf since 2012 and won the Landesliga Niederösterreich title in the 2014–15 season,[7] to clinch promotion to the Regionalliga Ost.[8] He returned to Austrian Bundesliga club SK Rapid Wien for the third time of his career in November 2016, as assistant manager to Damir Canadi.[9] On 9 April 2017, Djuricin succeeded Canadi as the club's manager.[10] He was sacked on 30 September 2018 and was appointed manager of Second League club FC Blau-Weiß Linz in April 2019 on a two-year contract.[11][12][13] A run of one win from 9 league games prior to the 2019–20 winter break led to Djuricin's sacking in December 2019.[14] On 9 February 2020, he was announced as manager of Swiss Challenge League club Grasshopper until 30 May 2020.[15][16] He won one of two league matches before the season was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[16] On 15 May and with the Swiss Challenge League having yet failed to resume, it was announced that Djuricin's contract would not be renewed.[16]

Personal life

Djuricin's son, Marco Djuricin, is an Austrian international footballer.[17] He is of Serbian and Croatian descent.[18]
