Managerial career

Gamula was appointed as manager of FC Rostov on 25 September 2014[2] following the resignation of Miodrag Božović.[3]

Following FC Rostov's 1-0 win over FC Ural, Gamula became involved in a racism row following question to the possibility of Rostov signing Benoit Angbwa, saying that six "dark-skinned players" was sufficient for the team.[4] On 12 November Gamula was handed a 5-game ban following his remarks.[5]

On 18 December, Gamula was appointed as Rostov's youth team manager,[6] with Kurban Berdyev replacing him as manager of the first team.[7]
