| Vladimír Weiss (born 22 September 1964) is a Slovak football coach and former player who serves as the coach of Slovan Bratislava. He is one of a small number of people to have appeared as a player and a coach at a FIFA World Cup.
Weiss played in the Czechoslovak First League during the 1980s and start of the 1990s until its dissolution, making over 100 league appearances for Inter Bratislava. During this period, he played for Czechoslovakia, making 19 appearances and scoring one goal whilst participating at the 1990 FIFA World Cup as well. Following the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, Weiss played for Petra Drnovice in the Czech First League, then returned to Slovakia, playing for Košice, Dunajská Streda, and Petržalka. He made 12 further national team appearances, this time for Slovakia, scoring one goal.
Weiss moved into management at the turn of the century, and won the Slovak league title in 2005 with Artmedia Petržalka before taking them to the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, a feat only achieved by the manager of one Slovak club before. He spent a year managing Russian side Saturn Moscow Oblast before returning to Petržalka, where he won another national title in the 2007–08 season, as well as the 2007–08 Slovak Cup for a double.
In 2008, Weiss was named as the manager for the Slovakia national team. He subsequently took Slovakia to 2010 FIFA World Cup, their first World Cup as an independent nation, where they progressed from the group stage to the knockout stage of the tournament.
