Konstantin Sergeyevich Sarsania (Russian: Константи́н Серге́евич Сарса́ния; 11 June 1968 – 7 October 2017) was a Russian professional football coach, player, and agent. At the time of his death he worked as director of sports for FC Zenit Saint Petersburg.[1]

Career[edit]

He made his debut as a player in the Soviet Second League in 1988 for FC Dynamo-2 Moscow.[2] He was a licensed FIFA player agent since 1998 and represented, among others, Vyacheslav Malafeev, Aleksandr Pavlenko and Vitaliy Denisov.

In October 2009, he was appointed the new director of sports for FC Dynamo Moscow. His official contract started in 2010. In August 2010, he was appointed the head coach of FC Fakel Voronezh, and due to a technicality (the same person can't be registered for two professional teams at the same time), had to be un-registered from his Dynamo Moscow post, even though he continued to serve his duties of that position as well as coaching Fakel. He was dismissed from his position as director of sports with Dynamo Moscow on December 6, 2010, officially to focus on his Fakel coaching position.[3]
