Prvoslav Dragićević (Serbian Cyrillic: Првослав Драгићевић; 4 March 1914 – 27 December 1974) was a Serbian football manager and player.

Playing career

Club career

Dragićević played at SK Jedinstvo Beograd and BSK Beograd from 1936 to 1941 as a midfielder, and he was part of the memorable midfield line formed with Petar Manola and Gustav Lechner. The team won the Yugoslav First League in 1939. During his career he also played with Belgrade club Radnički and Dinamo Pančevo where he finished his playing career in 1949.

International career

He has played six matches for the national team from 1939 to 1940. After the Germans invaded Yugoslavia in 1941, he left the country.

Managing career

Željezničar Sarajevo

He coached FK Željezničar Sarajevo in the 1954–55 season. Although the team secured only 11th place, it sufficed to save them from relegation.

Olympiacos

In 1956, he went to Greece to coach Olympiacos. The team won the double in the 1956–57 season. The league was won after a long run which ended with Olympiacos winning a play-off match against eternal rivals Panathinaikos in the neutral Nikos Goumas Stadium (1–0). In the cup, Olympiacos beat AEK Athens 1–0 in the quarter-finals with a goal by Babis Kotridis, and once again Panathinaikos (1–0) in the semi-finals. The team concluded by winning Iraklis 2–0 in the final and celebrated the first of three consecutive doubles (1957, 1958, 1959) that still remains a record for Greek teams.
