Therefore, the Croatian was loaned to AC Siena during the winter break of the 2004/05 season , where he played until the summer of 2006.

From summer 2009 to February 2010 Tudor was assistant coach to the Italian Edoardo Reja , who was in charge of Hajduk Split during this time.

On April 29, 2013, Igor Tudor was appointed head coach of Hajduk Split. He succeeded Mišo Krstičević , whose assistant he had previously been. In 2015 he took up the post of head coach at PAOK Thessaloniki and brought his compatriot and former teammate Ivan Leko , who was almost the same age, on board as an assistant coach. However, both had to leave the club when the Serbian Vladimir Ivić took over as coach in the spring of 2016.
