Likewise, the sources do not reveal clearly whether he won two or three Croatian championship titles as Hajduk's coach in the 1940s. While the titles of the 1940/41 and 1946 seasons are undoubted under his leadership, winning the 1945 championship is uncertain, as he shared the role of head coach with Leo Lemešić that year .
