*Masked attackers break Dinamo Zagreb coach's arm*
Dinamo Zagreb coach Mario Cvitanovic was beaten by two masked assailants with bats in front of his apartment in the Croatian capital, the club said on Thursday.
Local Zagreb based media have reported that the 42-year-old former international, who took over as Dinamo coach in July, suffered a broken arm in the attack late on Wednesday as he returned from a Croatian Cup match.
The beating comes a month after the club's former boss Zdravko Mamic, who is currently on trial for corruption, was shot in the leg by unknown perpetrators in Bosnia.
"Unfortunately this is only the continuation of ... completely legalised violence against people from our club," said the statement from Dinamo Zagreb, describing the attack against Cvitanovic as "cowardly".
The club urged the authorities to "at last wake up and stop ignoring everything that's going on regarding Dinamo".
After nine matches, Dinamo are currently leading the national championships with 25 points.
