Coaching Career and Retirement
When coming to the newly formed FK Partizan in 1945 Glaser beside their goalkeeper became their first manager. However that year the league has not been yet reestablished and by the end of the year he was replaced by the Hungarian Illés Spitz. He stayed in Belgrade until 1947, but when he moved to Mornar Split he would experience again the feeling of being a manager/player. This early coaching experiences proved to be an excellent way of gaining experience, and Glaser later managed numerous clubs, such as NK Dinamo Zagreb, NK Kvarner Rijeka, NK Proleter Osijek, NK Trešnjevka Zagreb, Austria FC Klagenfurt (today's FC Kärnten), FK Velež Mostar and FK Sartid Smederevo, among others.
He spent his final years at a retirement home in Zagreb. He is buried in Mirogoj Cemetery.
