Gazzaev is 71 years old. He served as Dynamo’s head coach in 1991-1993 and 1999-2001, leading the team to a bronze medal in the Russian Championship (1992).

In addition, the army team, led by Gazzaev, won the Russian championship three times and the national cup four times. Gazzaev also coached Alania Vladikavkaz, with whom he became Russian champions in 1995, and led the country’s national team.
