Igor Ivanovich Dobrovolski (Template:Lang-ru, Template:Lang-ua; born 27 August 1967) is a former Soviet and Russian football player, and now a manager. He is the head coach of FC Dinamo-Auto Tiraspol.

He started his career in the Moldavian SSR, then played in the Russian SFSR, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, France and Germany before retiring in Moldova.

Club career

Born in Markivka, Rozdilna Raion, Odesa Oblast, Ukrainian SSR, Dobrovolski trained at Tiraspol Children and Youth Sport School N4 in Moldavian SSR in early years (now in Transnistria). During his extensive career he played for Nistru Chişinău, Dynamo Moscow, Castellón, Servette, Genoa, Olympique de Marseille, Atlético Madrid, Fortuna Düsseldorf and Tiligul Tiraspol.

International career

Dobrovolski played for three different national teams: USSR at the 1988 Olympic Games where he was a gold medal winner and finished second top goal scorer with six goals (including one in the gold medal game itself); Romário scored seven but Brazil lost in the final to USSR. He was also part, with the same team, of the 1990 FIFA World Cup, representing afterwards the CIS at UEFA Euro 1992 and Russia at Euro 1996. He scored CIS's only goal in UEFA Euro 1992, in a 1–1 draw against Germany.

Four players have had the honour of scoring at least one goal in five successive matches at the Men's Olympic Football Tournament – Igor Dobrovolski (USSR in 1988), Ottmar Hitzfeld (FR Germany in 1972), Milan Galić (Yugoslavia in 1960) and Adolfo Baloncieri (Italy in 1928). Only Dobrovolski and Galić actually claimed gold.

Honours

Coaching career

At 39 years old he was coaching Tiligul Tiraspol in the 2005–06 season, and then took over the Moldova national football team for the qualification to UEFA Euro 2008, with a view to a two-year extension to his contract if he was successful.

In December 2007, he signed a new contract with Moldova. He was allowed to coach any club until the start of 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA). On 16 October 2009, Dobrovolski announced his resignation.
