Dragi Kanatlarovski - Capar (Macedonian: Драги Канатларовски - Цапар, born 8 November 1960) is a Macedonian football manager and former player. He represented the Yugoslav national team.

Name issue

His original name is Dragi and not Dragan as he is often mistaken for. The confusion happens since in Macedonia Dragi stands as one the nicknames for those who are called Dragan, but not in this case.[1] Similar problem has the current goalkeeper of the Macedonian national team, Tome Pačovski who is mistaken for Tomislav.[2]

Player career

Born in Bitola,[3] SR Macedonia, FPR Yugoslavia, he played for his hometown club FK Pelister before moving to FK Vardar where he will play four seasons. In 1989 he moved to Red Star Belgrade. He played one season in Belgrade, but it was enough to win the double, the Yugoslav Championship and the Yugoslav Cup. After that season he moved to Spain where he was Segunda División runner-up in summer 1991 and helped Deportivo La Coruña to be promoted back to La Liga where he played in the 1991–92 season, having reached the Spanish Cup semi-finals.

International career

He played his only cap for SFR Yugoslavia against Poland, friendly 28 March 1990. After the dissolution of Yugoslavia he represented Macedonia having played nine matches, scoring twice, between 1993 and 1995. He played in the first ever official match of Macedonia, played on October 13, 1993, against Slovenia.[4]

Coaching career

He has been the coach of the Republic of Macedonia twice. He first spell ended due to Republic of Macedonia not qualifying for World Cup 2002. He then became coach of FK Belasica[5] but sacked again in June 2002.[6] In September 2002, he was appointed by FK Kumanovo,[7] then FK Pobeda in December.[8] until June 2003 as coach of both national side and the club.[9] He became full-time national team coach in January 2004.[10]

His second spell ended because of poor results in World Cup 2006 qualifying matches, especially losing to Andorra. He was then replaced by Slobodan Santrač.[11]

He became FK Vardar coach in December 2005.[12]

In 2008 he became coach of Lokomotiv Plovdiv.[13]
