Honours

[edit]

The following table lists managers according to trophies won. The most successful manager to date was Tomislav Ivić who had four spells with the club (1973–76, 1978–80, 1987, 1997) and led Hajduk to a total of 7 trophies, three Yugoslav First League championships (1974, 1975, and 1979) and four Yugoslav Cup titles (1972, 1973, 1974, and 1976).

Since the inception of Croatian association football league competition, the Prva HNL in 1992, most successful was Ivan Katalinić, who also claimed 7 trophies. During his three spells at Hajduk (1993–95, 1998–99, 2004), Katalinić won two Croatian First League championships (1994, 1995), two Croatian Cup titles (1993, 1995) and three Croatian Supercup titles (1993, 1994 and 2004).

Petar Nadoveza is the only manager to have won honours available to Hajduk in both the Yugoslav and Croatian football league systems, winning the Yugoslav Cup in 1984 and Croatian Cup in 2000. In 2004, he also won the Croatian First League, after taking over from Zoran Vulić three rounds before the end of the champhionship.
