Ivan Hašek (born 6 September 1963) is a Czech professional football coach and former player who currently manages the Czech national football team.

Hašek played as a central midfielder and spent a 11-year career with Sparta Prague, appearing in more than 300 official matches with the club and becoming its coach. He represented Czechoslovakia at the 1990 World Cup and was also president of the Football Association of the Czech Republic.

As a coach, Hašek worked with clubs in the Middle East between 2012 and 2019 before being appointed to Lebanon in 2021. He returned to manage the Czech Republic national team in 2024.

Playing career

Born in Městec Králové, Hašek started his football career at ZOM Nymburk until he was 14 years old. Transferring to AC Sparta Prague, Hašek was named Footballer of the Year as the club won five league titles. He also played aboard in RC Strasbourg, Sanfrecce Hiroshima, and JEF United Ichihara. With the French club, Hašek played two seasons in Ligue 1 and Ligue 2. At the end of his playing career, he returned to Sparta Prague, where he won the 1996–97 league title.

Hašek played for Czechoslovakia, gaining 55 appearances and scored five goals. He was a participant in the 1990 FIFA World Cup, where the national side reached the quarterfinals, with him as team captain; in the group stage 5–1 routing of the United States, he scored the third. After the match, Hašek said: "We are sorry for the score".

Coaching career

Early coaching career

Hašek became head coach of former club Sparta Prague in 1999, winning the Czech First League title twice in his two-year tenure. He subsequently managed French club Strasbourg, as well as Vissel Kobe, Al Wasl FC and AS Saint-Étienne. He became coach of Dubai-based Al-Ahli in December 2007.

Hašek became president of the Czech Football Association in June 2009. However, on 7 July, he became head coach of the national team until the end of the 2010 World Cup qualification. Hašek announced his resignation as coach of the Czech Republic national team on 14 October 2009 and FA president on 26 June 2011 to return Dubai-based club Al-Ahli.

In July 2014, Hašek succeeded long-time coach Sebastião Lazaroni as the new coach of Qatar SC ahead of the 2014–15 season.

Lebanon and return to the Czech Republic

On 15 July 2021, Hašek was appointed head coach of the Lebanon national team, on a one-year contract. Having finished bottom of their group, thus failing to qualify for 2022 FIFA World Cup, Hašek decided not to renew his contract.

On 4 January 2024, Hašek was again appointed head coach of the Czech Republic national football team.

Personal life

Hašek is also a lawyer. His two sons, Pavel and Ivan, are also professional footballers.
